Abstract

Laparoscopic surgery has been suggested as a safe and effective alternative to laparotomy for the treatment of early stage endometrial cancer. In this study, we presented a 39-year-old patient who underwent pelvic lymphadenectomy through laparoscopy at our center following incomplete surgery at another center for early stage endometrium cancer. Laparoscopic lymphadenectomy seems to be a safe and reliable method for gynecologic malignancies that require lymph node dissection.
