Endometrial cancer should be reviewed even if all of them are removed?

  Some patients may not understand, why do I need to review my uterus and ovaries when they are gone? As we mentioned in the previous article, although the surgery has removed the uterus, ovaries and all visible lesions, there may still be tumor cells that are invisible to the naked eye that are sleeping. So be careful, we should not take it lightly even after the surgery.  Continuous review for 5 years and insist on 1 year physical examination after 5 years 1. The first examination is 2 months after the surgery; 2. Every 3 months within 2 years; 3. If there is no abnormality within 2 years, change to half yearly review and insist on review for 5 years; 4. Insist on annual review or physical examination after 5 years.  Examination items: 1, gynecological examination: the doctor will do a pelvic double examination each time; 2, imaging examinations: such as abdominal ultrasound, chest X-ray, and a CT can be reviewed after two years of review; 3, blood and urine routine, CA125, CA199: if the patient has elevated CA125 and CA199 before surgery, the serological tumor markers should also be followed up in the postoperative review.  Abdominal pain, abnormal bowel movement, cough and bone pain should be told to the doctor In daily life, if patients have abdominal distension and abdominal pain, abnormal bowel movement, cough or bone pain, these symptoms should be told to the doctor in the review. Especially abdominal symptoms should not be taken lightly as they may be tumor recurrence.  In addition, we remind you that you must keep all your medical records. This includes: medical records, examination data, surgery data, pathology results and so on. Don’t throw away the used or exhausted medical record book, it records the diagnosis and treatment of each doctor’s interview, which is very precious.
