Working in concert: radiology, pathology, and gynecologic oncology applications of the 2023 FIGO updates in endometrial cancer staging
摘要
The 2023 FIGO staging update for endometrial cancer moves beyond anatomy to integrate histology and molecular classification. This review outlines the new framework, illustrates its application through radiologic-pathologic case vignettes, and highlights how multidisciplinary input guides staging and therapy. Major revisions include separate substages for aggressive histologies, depth-based divisions incorporating LVSI, and molecularly driven categories such as POLE-abnormal and p53-abnormal tumors. Although these refinements sharpen prognostic accuracy, unequal access to advanced testing and interpretive variability remain obstacles to uniform implementation.
