- Abstract
The incidence of endometrial cancer has been increasing during 1999–2010 with an annual percent changes of 6.9%, and shows a distinctly increasing pattern in younger and older females (annual percent changes in females 80 years old were 11.2% and 9.5%, respectively). We present a case of 24 years old women with endometrioid cancer and treated successfully by Wertheim. Because the patient refused medical treatment Despite the fact that the majority of occurrences of EC happen after menopause, it has been documented in women of reproductive age, with 4% of cases happening in those who are 40 years or younger (1). Here, we provide a remarkably uncommon instance of an EC-positive young woman who lacked any risk indicators, such as obesity or a family history. However, despite the lack of a favorable family history, hereditary variables must be taken into account when EC develops in a young lady of this type ED it should be considered among juveniles with sustained abnormal uterine bleeding, even if they have no risk factors.
