Geographic Variation of Racial and Ethnic Differences in Uterine Cancer Survival.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Racial and ethnic disparities in uterine cancer survival are well-documented; however, limited data exist regarding the interplay of geography, diversity, and race and ethnicity in survival disparities.

Objective

To examine associations of race and ethnicity with uterine cancer-specific survival according to geographic region and regional diversity.
