Endometrial cancer: what is it?

The endometrial tumor is usually an endometrioid adenocarcinoma. It usually manifests as postmenopausal vaginal bleeding. Diagnosis is made by biopsy. Staging is surgical. Treatment requires hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and, in high-risk patients, often pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. For advanced tumors, radiation therapy, hormone therapy or chemotherapy is usually indicated.
