Questionnaire survey regarding current status of minimally invasive surgery for endometrial cancer in Japan: A cross-sectional survey for JSGOE members.

This study provided the current status of MIS for endometrial cancer in Japan. The hysterectomy method, use of uterine manipulators, and criteria for omitting lymph node dissection were generally in agreement with the guidelines. Currently, an extra-fascial simple hysterectomy, including at least not shaving the cervix, was a major method for early invasive endometrial cancer using MIS.
