Summary
Endometrial cancer remains the most common gynecologic malignancy diagnosed in the United States. Although most patients present with low-grade and early-stage disease, risk of endometrial cancer recurrence ranges from 8–64%, depending mostly on tumor-specific prognostic factors. Appropriate treatment options vary depending on extent of recurrent disease, previous therapies used, and intent of treatment, curative versus palliative. Randomized data to inform on outcomes of cytoreductive surgery in the treatment of recurrent endometrial cancer are non-existent. Given the limitations of the available evidence, as well as the emergence of better systemic therapeutic approaches, secondary cytoreduction in the management of patients with recurrent endometrial cancer is not recommended.
