Description

This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer in a non-academic general hospital in Japan. A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical stage IA endometrial cancer patients with G1 or G2 endometrioid carcinoma on endometrial biopsy. Out of the 51 patients included in this study, 35 underwent laparoscopic surgery, while 16 had open surgery. Perioperative complications occurred in 3 patients (8.5％) in the laparoscopic surgery group and in 5 cases (31.2％) in the open surgery group. No serious adverse events were identified. Recurrence occurred in 2 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery, but there was no statistically significant difference in relapse-free survival between the laparoscopic and open surgery groups. Our findings suggest that laparoscopic surgery for low-risk endometrial cancer can be safely performed not only in high-volume academic institutions but also in non-academic general hospitals in Japan.
