Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
According to current consensus, early stage endometrial cancer does not require nodal dissection. The key factor is proper selection of cases with early stage carcinoma pre-operatively to avoid extensive surgery. Aim-Aim of the study is to find accuracy of MRI in pre-operative staging of carcinoma endometrium. Materials and methods-The study is done in a tertiary care hospital on 42 patients. Information regarding the age, complaints, comorbidities and histological type of the tumour were taken.The findings between pre-operative MRI and the post-operative histopathology report with respect to deep myometrial invasion and lymph node metastasis were thoroughly analysed and accuracy of MRI was assessed. Results-The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and diagnostic accuracy of MRI for diagnosing deep myometrial invasion are 82.35%, 100%, 100%, 89.3% and 92.86% respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and diagnostic accuracy of MRI for diagnosing lymph node invasion are 80%, 94.6%, 66.7%, 97.2% and 92.86%. Conclusion-MRI has good diagnostic accuracy to detect deep myometrial invasion and there by detecting the subset of patients who needs proper lymph node dissection.
