Will endometrial cancer recur after treatment? If these symptoms occur, the possibility of recurrence is very high

For endometrial cancer, a common disease, the treatment method has been improving, but because each patient's control situation is different, the recurrence rate is very high. Especially in the late stage, if the treatment is not thorough, recurrence and metastasis will occur. At this time, patients should not be nervous, actively cooperate with the treatment, and pay attention to diet and lifestyle, which will be helpful for treatment.

When endometrial cancer develops to the late stage, incomplete treatment and unreasonable choice of treatment methods may lead to recurrence and metastasis.
Late-stage recurrence and metastasis of endometrial cancer include systemic metastasis to the liver, lung, bone, lymph nodes, blood vessels, and recurrence to the pelvic wall and paracervix. Some people have counted the sites of recurrence after radiotherapy.
The clinical symptoms of late-stage recurrence and metastasis of endometrial cancer will also vary depending on the site of recurrence and metastasis. Recurrence in the uterus or vagina often causes irregular vaginal bleeding or foul-smelling leucorrhea; recurrence in the pelvic wall or paracervix may cause pain and edema in the affected lower limb, pain in the lumbosacral region or lower abdomen, and a paracervical mass or a fixed mass in the sacral fossa may be palpated during pelvic examination; metastasis to the rectum or bladder often causes blood in the stool or hematuria; bone metastasis often causes local pain; lung metastasis may cause coughing and chest pain.
If the above symptoms and signs appear after treatment of endometrial cancer, the possibility of recurrence should be considered. Local recurrence of the cervix and vagina can be diagnosed easily by vaginal smear cytology and biopsy. Attention should be paid to the differentiation of pelvic masses from lymphocele after radical surgery, pelvic wall inflammation, and paracervical connective tissue fibrosis after radiotherapy. Local fine needle puncture for cell smear and pathological examination can help to clarify the diagnosis. B-ultrasound, pyelography, isotope renal imaging and CT pelvic examination have certain reference value for diagnosing recurrent cancer.
Uterine cancer is one of the common diseases among women. It not only has a high incidence rate, but also a high recurrence rate. The recurrence of uterine cancer is caused by many factors, the most important of which is the recurrence of primary uterine cancer after treatment. If the surgery is not completely cured, the tumor may disappear on the surface, but in fact there are still some uterine cancer cells. Patients need to pay attention.
