“…24 Importantly, the incidence of endometrial cancer in young women has been rising steadily since the 1990’s. 25 Endometrial cancer in young women is often associated with obesity and nulliparity and is typically associated with a more favorable prognosis than in older women. 26,27…”

“…However, disease recurrence may occur and affect patient outcomes when clinical or pathological adverse factors are present. The conventional risk factors for recurrence in early stage endometrial cancer include tumor stage, increasing patient age, tumor size, high-risk histological type, grade 3 adenocarcinoma, myometrial invasion and lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ], all of which have been associated with a higher risk of recurrence and nodal metastasis [ 2 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. Among these adverse factors, a Gynecologic Oncology Group study reported that tumor grading was the greatest determinant of recurrence, with a relative risk of 15 for grade 3 adenocarcinoma [ 8 ].…”

“…In a group of 181 patients with endometrial cancer described by Steiner et al, the effect of the histopathologic tumour type as an independent prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival and death was revealed, and these investigators found that patients with adenocarcinoma or adenoacanthoma had considerably higher overall survival and recurrencefree survival rates when compared to patients with other tumour forms like (papillary, clear-cell carcinoma, and others) (30,31) .…”
