Carcinoma of the endometrium. III. Analysis of 865 cases of XXXX and adenoacanthoma.

@entity1 @entity5 @entity189 @entity1544 @entity420
Eight hundred sixty-five @entity1 with confirmed @entity420 of the endometrium were studied. Eight hundred eleven were followed up for at least 5 years or until death, and 537 were followed up for 10 years. The survival rate was 77.1% at 5 years and 61.0% at 10 years. Age at diagnosis was the single most important clinical determinant of survival. @entity5 grade was an important predictor of the course of disease, and nuclear grade was a significantly more accurate indicator than was histologic grade. Stage and depth of invasion were also important predictors of survival. The 5-year survival rate for black @entity1 was only 41.9%. Stage for stage and grade for grade, @entity1 undergoing hysterectomy alone and with radiation had similar survival rates. Adenoacanthoma had a better prognosis that did @entity420 without @entity1544 ; there were no deaths at 5 to 10 years in @entity1 diagnosed before age 50. The subtype of @entity189 was found to be a highly significant predictor of prognosis.
