Organ-sparing treatment for early-stage endometrial cancer with reproductive function
https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2023.82.32
Abstract
The article presents a clinical case of successful implementation of generative function af-ter a favorable outcome of endometrial cancer treatment. A 41-year-old patient with a diagnosis of endometrioid adenocarcinoma, low ovarian reserve, unrealized reproductive potential was of-fered a variant of organ-preserving treatment in the amount of hysteroresectoscopy followed by hormone therapy. After the treatment, no data on recurrence or progression were revealed at the follow-up examination, pregnancy planning with the help of assisted reproductive technologies was recommended, which was not carried out due to spontaneous pregnancy. This clinical case demonstrated that organ-preserving treatment for early endometrial cancer allowed not only to cure the malignant process, but also subsequently perform a generative function without reducing the effectiveness of treatment.
