This study found a prevalence of concurrent endometrial cancer of 47.2%, and sentinel lymph node biopsy provided prognostic and therapeutic information in 60.8% of cases. It also allowed for the adjustment of adjuvant therapy in 12.3% of high to intermediate-risk patients without increasing operative time or complication rates.
