Are radiation-associated endometrial cancers prognostically unfavorable tumors : a clinicopathologic comparison with 527 sporadic endometrial cancers?
The clinicopathologic characteristics of RAECs, which include a preponderance of high-stage, high-grade and high-risk histologic subtypes, indicate that these tumors differ from sporadic endometrial carcinomas. However, patients with RAECs do not appear to have a significantly worse prognosis when compared with patients with high-stage and high-grade sporadic cancers.
For low-risk CS, the same medical attendance (i.e. a midwife) as for an uncomplicated NVD would be appropriate; this can free a doctor for other duties, and assist in de-medicalising a low-risk procedure.
