Abstrakt: | Objective: Ultrastaging is accurate in detecting nodal metastases, but increases costs and may not be necessary in certain low-risk subgroups. In this study we examined the risk of nodal involvement detected by sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in a large population of apparent early-stage endometrial cancer and stratified by histopathologic characteristics. Furthermore, we aimed to identify a subgroup in which ultrastaging may be omitted. Methods: We retrospectively included patients who underwent SLN (with bilateral mapping and no empty nodal packets on final pathology) ± systematic lymphadenectomy for apparent early-stage endometrial cancer at two referral cancer centers. Lymph node status was determined by SLN only, regardless of non-SLN findings. The incidence of macrometastasis, micrometastasis, and isolated tumor cells (ITC) was measured in the overall population and after stratification by histotype (endometrioid vs serous), myometrial invasion (none, <50%, ≥50%), and grade (G1, G2, G3). Results: Bilateral SLN mapping was accomplished in 1570 patients: 1359 endometrioid and 211 non-endometrioid, of which 117 were serous. The incidence of macrometastasis, micrometastasis, and ITC was 3.8%, 3.4%, and 4.8%, respectively. In patients with endometrioid histology (n=1359) there were 2.9% macrometastases, 3.2% micrometastases, and 5.3% ITC. No macro/micrometastases and only one ITC were found in a subset of 274 patients with low-grade (G1-G2) endometrioid endometrial cancer without myometrial invasion (all <1%). The incidence of micro/macrometastasis was higher, 2.8%, in 708 patients with low-grade endometrioid endometrial cancer invading <50% of the myometrium. In patients with serous histology (n=117), the incidence of macrometastases, micrometastasis, and ITC was 11.1%, 6.0%, and 1.7%, respectively. For serous carcinoma without myometrial invasion (n=36), two patients had micrometastases for an incidence of 5.6%. Conclusions: Ultrastaging may be safely omitted in patients with low-grade endometrioid endometrial cancer without myometrial invasion. No other subgroups with a risk of nodal metastasis of less than 1% have been identified. Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared. (© IGCS and ESGO 2024. No commercial re-use.
