[The prognostic significance of the histological types of endometrial cancer in relation to the 5-year survival of the patients].
The authors analyse 474 patients with endometrial carcinoma, admitted and treated at the gynecological clinic of the Higher Medical Institute in the town of Pleven during the period of 1980-1988. The mean age of the women is 63.15-8.14 years. The hospitalized patients are arranged according to the clinical stage during the period of 1984-1988 in the following way: I stage--17.43%, II stage--72.69%, III stage--6.25% and IV stage--3.61%. The degree of a 5-year survival depends on the histological structure of the tumour. The late results in the treatment of patients with highly differentiated adenocarcinoma in comparison with the remaining forms are considerably better. The survival is over 76% of the treated women at I stage. The results from the clinical and morphological study on the basic variants of growth and distribution of carcinoma of the uterine body determine the basic principles for rational surgical treatment. Timely discovery, dispensary observation and treatment of women, predisposed to endometrial carcinoma are practical possibilities for pathogenetically substantiated prophylaxis.
