Prognosis of women with apparent stage I endometrial cancer who had supracervical hysterectomy.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To examine characteristics and survival outcomes of women with apparent early-stage endometrial cancer who had a supracervical hysterectomy.

Methods

The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program was used to identify women with presumed stage I endometrial cancer who underwent supracervical hysterectomy between 1983 and 2012. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust background difference between supracervical hysterectomy (n=1,339) and total hysterectomy (n=110,523) cases. Endometrial cancer-specific survival (CSS) was examined by multivariable analysis expressed with adjusted-hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval [CI].

Results

Supracervical hysterectomy was independently associated with younger age, low-grade disease, and small tum
