Can endometrial cancer be cured?

The cure of endometrial cancer varies depending on the early stage of the disease and individual differences. Generally speaking, it cannot be generalized. You should cooperate with the doctor to receive treatment as soon as possible.

1. Curable: Early endometrial cancer: The cure rate is relatively high. Early endometrial cancer is usually confined to the uterine mucosa and has a high degree of differentiation. Timely surgical resection and postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy as prescribed by the doctor can help most patients achieve clinical cure, with a five-year survival rate of more than 80%, or even higher. Active cooperation with treatment and maintaining a good attitude will have a positive effect on recovery.

2. Incurable: Especially for the more malignant types, the possibility of complete cure is small. In the middle and late stages, cancer cells may have spread outside the uterus, lymph nodes or distant organs. At this time, the treatment is mainly to prolong the patient's survival and improve the quality of life. Advanced endometrial cancer usually loses the opportunity for surgery and can only undergo palliative treatment such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with a low cure rate.

The cure of endometrial cancer needs to be comprehensively judged based on the early stage of the disease, pathological type and individual differences. Early detection and early treatment are the key to improving the cure rate. At the same time, patients should maintain a positive attitude and cooperate with doctors for standardized treatment.
