Patient's question:
Uterine sarcomaDoctor's answer:
Uterine sarcoma is primarily treated with surgery. The standard surgical procedure involves a total hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy. However, there is still some controversy regarding the specific techniques, mainly concerning whether the ovaries can be preserved, the clinical significance of lymph node removal, whether lymph node removal is mandatory, and the role of tumor cell reduction surgery in advanced disease.
