Long-term Patterns of Excess Mortality among Endometrial Cancer Survivors.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We investigated excess mortality after endometrial cancer using conditional relative survival estimates and standardized mortality ratios (SMR).

Methods

Women diagnosed with endometrial cancer during 2000-2017 (N = 183,153) were identified in the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database. SMRs were calculated as observed deaths among endometrial cancer survivors over expected deaths among demographically similar women in the general U.S.

Population

Five-year relative survival was estimated at diagnosis and each additional year survived up to 12 years post-diagnosis, conditional on survival up to that year.

Results

For the full cohort, 5-year relative survival was 87.7%, 96.2%, and 97.1% at 1, 5, and 10 years post-diagnosis, respective
