Investigating the Association of Lower Uterine Segment Involvement with Deep Myometrial Invasion in Endometrial Adenocarcinoma

Background: Endometrial carcinoma is the most common cancer of the female genitalia and its prevalence is 2% to 3% along the females’ lifetime. This adenocarcinoma is diagnosed in the early stages because the patients become symptomatic early in the course of disease. The correlation of the lower uterine segment involvement (LUSI) with the recurrence, and the survival rates in patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma are always questionable. Confirming the prognostic significance of LUSI can fundamentally improve the current state of patients’ surveillance. The current study aimed at investigating the association of lower uterine segment involvement with deep myometrial invasion in endometrial adenocarcinoma.
