The incidences of pelvic and paraaortic lymph node metastases in 106 patients with clinical Stage 1 endometrium cancer are presented. All patients were primarily surgically staged and treatment consisted of peritoneal cytology assessment, type II radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingooophorectomy, pelvic and paraaortic total lymphadenectomy. Pelvic lymph node metastases were present in 15.1% and paraaortic lymph node metastases in 8.5% of the patients. Multiple prognostic factors were evaluated in respect to nodal status. This study adds credence to primary surgical staging with total pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy regardless of presence or absence of the various risk factors.
