Pathologic findings and outcomes for octogenarians presenting with uterine malignancy

Elderly patients with UC have features associated with extrauterine spread. Both clinically and surgically staged Stage I patients had excellent OS at 2 years despite no adjuvant therapy. Prevalent medical co-morbidities may impact survival more than recurrence risk. The 23% recurrence rate among HIR patients in GOG 99 was not observed in our data, suggesting that observation for elderly Stage I patients is acceptable.
