Distant recurrence and DRM was high in patients with endometrial cancer regardless of histological type, suggesting the need for different therapies in early-stage high-grade non-endometrioid and endometrioid tumors.

Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy in early-stage high-grade endometrioid endometrial carcinoma results in improved disease-specific and overall survival compared to radiotherapy alone. Yet, due to the relatively low numbers, validation of these findings is needed in large prospective trials.
