Core Tip

Core Tip: We focus on endometrial carcinoma with cervical stromal invasion, given its correlation with reduced 5-year survival rates and heightened lymph node metastasis risk in patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer. Patients with cervical stromal invasion are required to have a total hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy. In contrast, they only require a total hysterectomy. In instances of endometrial carcinoma that involves the cervix but lacks an apparent primary uterine body tumor, magnetic resonance imaging examinations should be performed with greater caution to prevent potential misdiagnoses.
