Improving preoperative diagnosis in endometrial cancer using systematic morphological assessment and a small immunohistochemical panel

Preoperative histopathological classification determines the primary surgical approach in endometrial carcinoma (EC) patients but has only moderate agreement between preoperative and postoperative diagnosis. The aim of the PIpelle Prospective ENDOmetrial carcinoma (PIPENDO) study is to determine whether histopathological assessment and a small panel of diagnostic biomarkers decreases discrepancies between preoperative and postoperative diagnosis in EC.
