Isolated vaginal recurrence in women with stage I endometrial cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To compare clinical and pathologic characteristics of women with surgical stage I endometrial carcinoma by location of first recurrence and describe characteristics of isolated vaginal recurrence.

Methods

Patients with 2009 International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecology (FIGO) stage I endometrial carcinoma treated at two large cancer centers from 1/1/2009-12/31/2017 were identified. Sarcoma histology was excluded. Recurrences were grouped into isolated vaginal or extravaginal. Isolated vaginal recurrences were localized by anatomic location within the vaginal vault. Clinical and pathologic variables were compared with chi-square analysis, and Kaplan-Meier curves with log-rank tests.

Results

Of 2815 women identified, 278 (10%) experienced a recurrence.
