What are the surgical treatments for endometrial cancer? There are three treatments

Patients with stage I disease can undergo extrafascial total hysterectomy combined with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. For stage II disease, modified radical hysterectomy combined with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is recommended. Patients with stage III and IV disease usually undergo tumor cell reduction surgery.

The uterus is not only an important reproductive organ, but also a relatively fragile organ that is easily invaded by some diseases. If it is just an ordinary uterine disease, it is relatively easy to treat, but if you have endometrial cancer, the difficulty of treatment will increase, and it is best to have surgical treatment. So what are the surgical treatments for endometrial cancer?
1. Surgical treatment of endometrial cancer
1. Extrafascial hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy <br/>If the disease is in stage I, extrafascial hysterectomy can be considered in combination with bilateral oophorectomy. If there is pelvic and para-aortic lymph node metastasis, or the depth of myometrial infiltration exceeds 1/2, or the cancer involves more than 50% of the uterine cavity, pelvic lymph node resection is also required.
2. Modified radical hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy <br/>If the disease is not well controlled in the first stage, it will easily develop to the second stage. At this time, modified radical hysterectomy should be used for treatment, and bilateral oophorectomy should be performed in combination. In addition, pelvic lymph node resection or other operations should be performed according to the actual situation.
3. Cytoreductive surgery <br/>When endometrial cancer develops to stage III and IV, patients need to undergo cytoreductive surgery, which means removing all visible lesions as much as possible.
Postoperative care for endometrial cancer
1. Strengthen nutrition <br/>After endometrial cancer surgery, the patient's body resistance will drop significantly, and postoperative recovery becomes very slow, so during this period it is necessary to strengthen nutrition and provide a high-calorie, high-protein and high-vitamin diet.
2. No sexual intercourse or bathing within three months after surgery <br/>No sexual intercourse or bathing within three months after surgery. Sexual intercourse or bathing may increase the chance of vaginal infection. If bacteria enter the uterine cavity, it will inevitably affect the recovery after surgery.
3. Go to the hospital for regular checkups <br/>Patients also need to go to the hospital for regular checkups so that the doctor can understand the postoperative recovery status in a timely manner. If there are any problems, they can be discovered in time and the most reasonable treatment plan can be given.
