[Endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary: clinicopathologic analysis in 87 cases].
From Jan. 1972 through Dec. 1984, 87 cases of endometrioid carcinoma of ovary were treated in our hospital, accounting for 23.5% of all cases of epithelial ovarian cancer admitted during the same period. Histologically they could be subdivided into 4 types, i. e. endometrioid carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, adenocanthoma, and adenosquamous carcinoma. The 5-year survival rates for each type of tumors were 51.2, 0, 100 and 0% respectively. The 5- and 10-year survival rates were 90.1 and 90.1% for stage I, patients, 23.3 and 23.3% for stage II, 4.6 and 0% for stage III, and nil for stage IV. For improving the survival rate and reducing the incidence of recurrence, postoperative long term hormonal therapy should be considered.
