Description
Jeong Min Song and co-authors ask whether high CA125 blood levels should push otherwise low-risk womb cancer patients toward node removal, in this 2024 paper. Korean criteria mark younger women as low risk for spread to lymph nodes. The marker, though, also rises from harmless conditions, which clouds the call.
Charts from seventy-three premenopausal patients at seven Korean centers were reviewed. Only two of sixty-two who had nodes removed showed spread. Five women saw recurrence over about five years of follow-up, and five-year recurrence-free survival reached just under eighty-nine percent. The aim was to sharpen guidance for this narrow group.
