abstract
Highlights
- •
- 140 patients with uterine serous carcinoma from three academic institutions were studied.
- •
- All cases were graded using MDACC two-tier grading system as low grade and high grade
- •
- The prognostic utility of application of MDACC two-tier grading system to uterine serous carcinoma is not applicable
Objective
A
subset of uterine serous carcinoma (USC) may have better clinical
behavior bringing up the possibility that there may be morphologic
features, which would help in their categorization. The aim of this
study is to evaluate the potential use of the MD Anderson Cancer Center
2-tier grading system for ovarian carcinoma in USC.
Conclusion
The presence of atypia and mitosis across a uterine serous carcinoma is notoriously variable in magnitude and extent, potentially making evaluation of these features difficult and subsequent grading subjective. Our findings thus show that actual prognostic utility of application of MDACC two-tier grading system to uterine serous carcinoma may not be applicable
