Abstract

The article discusses a study on descriptive nomograms of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) use and patterns of care analysis for stage I and II of endometrial adenocarcinoma. It found that higher tumor grade and stage led to greater use of RT. It notes that geographic location had a significant effect on overall RT use and therapy choice. It also mentions the absence of a national consensus on adjuvant treatment for early-stage disease.
