OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the sentinel lymph node mapping algorithm (SLN-A) on the staging in high-risk endometrial cancer (EC) compared to SLN plus selective lymphadenectomy (S-LND).
METHODS
We retrospectively analyzed the database from a multicenter collaboration that included women with high risk features who underwent primary surgical staging.
RESULTS
One-hundred and seventy-one women were identified (171), 66 in the SLN-A and 105 in the S-LND group, respectively. Pelvic LD was performed on 115 patients (67.2%) and aortic dissection was performed in 54/105 of the women in the S-LND group (51%). The 5-year comparison did not show a significant difference in the strategy adopted for nodal staging, regarding disease-free survival (DFS) [HR: 0.82; 95% CI 0.53-1.28; p = 0.390].
CONCLUSIONS
In this study focusing on women with EC in the HR groups, we did not find a difference in the 5-year DFS when comparing the SLN-A strategy with S-LND. The SLN strategy did not seem to compromise the prognosis of patients with a higher risk of recurrence.
