Our results suggest that CC3Low in peritoneal cytology samples is a poor prognostic factor in patients with endometrial cancers, especially non-endometrioid tumours. Immunocytochemical analysis of CC3 expression could potentially facilitate identification of patients with high-risk endometrial cancer with PPC.
