Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging predicts clinicopathological parameters and stages of endometrial carcinomas.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We investigated the agreement and accuracy of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with postoperative pathological characteristics and stages of endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC).

Methods

We recruited 527 women with EEC who underwent staging surgery at a single medical institution. The preoperative MRI, stages, and clinical and pathological parameters, including myometrial invasion (MI), cervical invasion (CI), adnexal metastasis (AM), intra-abdominal metastasis, and pelvic and/or para-aortic nodal metastasis, were recorded and analyzed. The agreement and accuracy between the preoperative MRI findings and these parameters and stages were assessed.

Results

The rate of the preoperative MRI-based clinical stage matching the postoperative surgic
