What does this stage mean?
Stage 1 endometrial cancer is confined to the uterus. Standard treatment is hysterectomy + bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy + sentinel lymph node mapping. Robotic and laparoscopic approaches are preferred for minimally invasive recovery. Fertility-preserving conservative management (hormone therapy + surveillance) is available for selected Stage 1A grade 1 disease in younger women.
For broader information see our cancer overview and treatment page.
Recommended treatment pathway
Stage 1 endometrial cancer is confined to the uterus. Standard treatment is hysterectomy + bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy + sentinel lymph node mapping. Robotic and laparoscopic approaches are preferred for minimally invasive recovery. Fertility-preserving conservative management (hormone therapy + surveillance) is available for selected Stage 1A grade 1 disease in younger women.
Adjuvant therapy
Risk-stratified. Low-risk: surveillance only. Intermediate risk: vaginal brachytherapy. High-intermediate or high risk: external beam radiation +/- chemotherapy.
Outlook
5-year survival above 90% for Stage 1 disease. Risk stratification (grade, depth of invasion, LVSI, molecular markers) determines adjuvant treatment.
