“…In these evaluations of local disease, MRI offers better diagnostic performance than transvaginal US and could represent the reference standard. [37][38][39] In particular, contrast-enhanced MRI or diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) could provide additional diagnostic value in myometrial invasion. 40,41 In terms of 18 F-FDG PET/CT, limited data are available.…”

Imaging has played a pivotal role in the management of gynecological malignancy. Positron emission tomography (PET), particularly 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 F-FDG) PET to reflect cellular glycolytic metabolism, is being increasingly used and has proven superior to conventional imaging including ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging. Studies of and evidence for the utility of 18 F-FDG PET/CT for the detection of local or metastatic disease, treatment planning, response assessment, restaging of recurrent disease, and prognostic assessment are growing. We review the latest evidence for and limitations of 18 F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of gynecological malignancy. Moreover, we also describe the benefits of and evidence for other tracers.

“…Women with negative nodes derive no benefit from unnecessary lymphadenectomy, and may develop short- and long-term morbidity related to this procedure [62]; therefore, preoperative staging of the local spread of disease is a critical step for tailoring the extent of surgery [63]. …”

In the last few years technical improvements have produced a dramatic shift from traditional open surgery towards a minimally invasive approach for the management of early endometrial cancer. Advancement in minimally invasive surgical approaches has allowed extensive staging procedures to be performed with significantly reduced patient morbidity. Debate is ongoing regarding the choice of a minimally invasive approach that has the most effective benefit for the patients, the surgeon, and the healthcare system as a whole.Surgical treatment of women with presumed early endometrial cancer should take into account the features of endometrial disease and the general surgical risk of the patient. Women with endometrial cancer are often aged, obese, and with cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities that increase the risk of peri-operative complications, so it is important to tailor the extent and the radicalness of surgery in order to decrease morbidity and mortality potentially derivable from unnecessary procedures. In this regard women with negative nodes derive no benefit from unnecessary lymphadenectomy, but may develop short- and long-term morbidity related to this procedure. Preoperative and intraoperative techniques could be critical tools for tailoring the extent and the radicalness of surgery in the management of women with presumed early endometrial cancer. In this review we will discuss updates in surgical management of early endometrial cancer and also the role of preoperative and intraoperative evaluation of lymph node status in influencing surgical options, with the aim of proposing a management algorithm based on the literature and our experience.
