Summary

This study looked at 150 women with intermediate- or high-risk endometrial cancer to compare two ways of removing lymph nodes near the aorta (para-aortic area). One method removes nodes above a certain artery (high-level), the other below (low-level). The goal was to see which approach gives more accurate cancer staging and better long-term survival. The study found that high-level removal may find more hidden cancer but also carries more surgical risk.
