Survival implications of staging lymphadenectomy for non-endometrioid endometrial cancers

LND is associated with survival benefit in patients with non-endometrioid endometrial cancers. Addition of para-aortic LND to pelvic LND may be most beneficial for patients with serous carcinoma. Systematic lymphadenectomy may be associated with survival benefit through detection and microscopic cytoreduction of occult disease.
