Objectives Lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI) is associated with an increased risk of recurrence. Usually, the interpretation of LVSI is just qualitative, as presence or absence. The aim of this study is to examine the quantitative analysis of LVSI. Methods Retrospective multicentre study. It included 2300 consecutive patients who received a histologically confirmed diagnosis of endometrial cancer between January 2000 and December 2018 at the Gynaecologic Oncology Unit of two tertiary hospitals in Italy. Results The rate of lymph node metastasis increased from the 5% in patients with no LVSI, to 15% in patients with focal LVSI and 33% in those with diffuse LVSI (p Conclusion The presence of diffuse LVSI is an independent risk factor of both lymph node metastasis and distant recurrence in endometrial cancer patients. It is associated with decreased OS and DFS. Adjuvant radiation improved survival regardless of grading, histotype, and lymph nodal metastasis in women with diffuse LVSI. |
