Summary
High-grade endometrial cancers are rare and carry a poor prognosis. Unlike low-grade endometrial histologies, these tend to metastasize regardless of myometrial invasion and uterine factors. Evidence reveals sentinel lymph node mapping (SLN) versus complete lymphadenectomy (LND) for staging is noninferior in terms of detection of metastatic disease and adverse events. Proponents of LND would argue there is limited detection of metastatic disease and decreased therapeutic benefits. Several studies, including prospective trials, reveal high detection rate and sensitivity with SLN. Multiple retrospective cohort studies reveal there is no difference in overall survival and progression-free survival when comparing SLN versus LND. As such, this should be the standard of care for staging patients with high-grade endometrial cancer.
