  1. Endometrial CancerSurgical Staging(Role of Lymphadenectomy) Karl Podratz MD PhD FACS

  2. Endometrial CancerSurgical Staging • Basis for Definitive Staging • Extent of Disease • Adjuvant Rx determinant • Prognostication • Comparative evaluation • Potentially therapeutic

  3. Endometrial CancerSurgical Staging • Definitive Staging • TAH/BSO/Peritoneal cytology • Pelvic/Paraaortic LND* • Biopsy/Omentectomy • Cytoreduction (Rx) *LND = Lymph node dissection

  4. Endometrial CancerSurgical Staging • Definitive Staging • TAH/BSO/Peritoneal cytology • Pelvic/Paraaortic LND* • Biopsy/Omentectomy • Cytoreduction (Rx) *LND = Lymph node dissection

  5. Endometrial CancerRole of Lymphadenectomy vs Radiotherapy • Modality-based therapy* • Lymphadenectomy • Radiotherapy *Traditions, physician preferences, suboptimal study designs, etc.

  6. Endometrial CancerAnnual Incidence Cases and Deaths ACS Estimates* Year Cases Deaths 1987 35,000 2,900 2007 39,080** 7,400*** *Ca 1987; CA 2007 **11.7% increase; ***155% increase

  7. Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Paradigm shift necessary • Minimize overtreatment • Minimize undertreatment • Maximize outcomes

  8. Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Treatment paradigm shift • Minimize overtreatment • Identify pts not requiring LND and/or RT • Minimize undertreatment • Identify pts benefiting from LND and/or RT • Maximize outcomes

  9. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Modality-based therapy • Radiotherapy vs. lymphadenectomy • Uterine histology • Disease-based therapy • Based on patterns of failure • Predicted by pathologic determinants • Selective Lymphadenectomy • Selective Radiotherapy • Selective Chemotherapy

  10. Endometrial CancerSelective Lymphadenectomy(not sampling) • Lymph Node Dissection (LND) • Low risk: Not indicated • All others: Systematic

  11. Endometrial CancerSelective Lymphadenectomy • Lymphadenectomy not indicated* • Low risk: • Endometrioid • G 1&2 • MI < 50% • PTD < 2 cm *Mariani et al. Am J Ob Gyn 2000

  12. Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer Grade 1 & 2 and MI < 50% Failures according to PTD* Sites (DOD) PTD Pt Failures Loc + (cm) (no.) no. % Loc Dist Dist < 2 123 3 2 3 (0) -- -- > 2 169 14 8 3 (1) 6 (6) 5 (4) *Primary Tumor Diameter

  13. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerLow risk: G1/2, < 2 cm, < 50% MI Pt % 5 yr Treatment^ (no.) Survival Hysterectomy only 59 100 Hyst + LND* +/or RT** 64 100 Total 123 ^3/113 recurred (vagina) without RT; all salvaged *All nodes negative;**10 RT; 7 for PPC Mariani et al. Am J Ob Gyn 2000

  14. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerLow Risk: G 1/2, MI < 50%,PTD < 2 cm • Lymphadenectomy not indicated • 20% Over all population* • 29% Endometrioid patients* *Mariani et al. Am J Ob Gyn 2000

  15. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerSelective Lymphadenectomy • Lymphadenectomy not indicated (29%) • Low risk: G 1/2, MI < 50%, PTD < 2 cm • Systematic Lymphadenectomy (71%) • All others (not low risk)

  16. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerSelective Lymphadenectomy • Lymphadenectomy not indicated • Low risk: G 1/2, MI < 50%, PTD < 2 cm • Systematic Lymphadenectomy • All others (not low risk) • 17% positive nodes

  17. Endometrial Cancer FailuresPelvic Lymphatic Failures Lymphatic failures according to risk factors Lymphatic Failure rate P Site % at 5 years Value Pelvic Sidewall Low risk<1 <0.001 High risk* 26 Low risk = absence of high risk factors High risk = *CSI and/or LN mets

  18. Endometrial Cancer FailuresLymphatic Failures Lymphatic failures according to risk factors Lymphatic Failure rate P Site(s) % at 5 years Value Pelvic Sidewall Low risk <1 <0.001 High risk* 26 Para-aortic area Low risk 1 <0.001 High risk** 33 Low risk = absence of high risk factors High risk = *CSI and/or LN mets; **LN mets only

  19. Endometrial Cancer FailuresParaaortic Lymphatic Involvement • 33% para-aortic failures with pelvic and/or para-aortic LN mets • 47% para-aortic LN mets or para-aortic failures with pelvic LN mets* *Mariani et al 2002 (Mayo series)

  20. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Disease-based therapy • Based on patterns of failure • Predicted by pathologic determinants • Selective Lymphadenectomy • Selective Radiotherapy • 12% total population at risk • EBRT indicated in 12% • 47% paraaortic risk • RT field to include PA area

  21. Endometrial Cancer Therapy after Lymphadenctomy Conclusions: Absent CSI or pelvic LN mets: adjuvant Rx to pelvic or para-aortic node-bearing areas does not appear indicated Positive (or at-risk* for) pelvic LN mets: adjuvant Rx to both the pelvic and para-aortic nodal areas indicated*Patients at-risk but incompletely staged

  22. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Treatment paradigm shift • Minimize overtreatment • Identify pts not requiring LND and/or RT • Minimize undertreatment • Identify pts benefiting from LND and/or RT • Maximize outcomes

  23. Endometrioid Endometrial CancerRole of Radiotherapy and Lymphadenectomy • Modality-based therapy • Radiotherapy vs. lymphadenectomy • Uterine histology • Disease-based therapy • Based on patterns of failure • Predicted by pathologic determinants • Selective Lymphadenectomy • Selective Radiotherapy • Selective Chemotherapy
