[|Human|] Hi, I was just wondering if you could help with some questions about endometrial cancer.My mother (53 years of age) was diagnosed with it a couple of days ago. She noticed some bleeding after menopause a month ago and so went to the doctors two weeks after experiencing the bleeding. I am now worried that it may have spread to everywhere else. She is schedualed to undergo a total hysterectomy removing the felopian tubes and ovaries. Is it too late? Is there a chance it can be cured totally?Please help.Thanks.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. Cancer is a difficult condition to treat, however in the initial stage cancer can be completely treatable. It is important for your mother the get total hysterectomy with bilateral ovary surgery. In the initial stage, a cancer of endometrium can spread to the ovary and fallopian tube and therefore the doctor has recommended surgery. If she is in stage Ia or IB then complete cure can be expected. After surgery, the uterus and ovary must be sent to pathology laboratory for confirmation of cancer and the type of disease. If the cancer is aggressive then she might require additional chemotherapy or radiation. Whether she requires more treatment or not, she must follow up with her doctor and get regular scan done for few months to make sure that the cancer is cured completely. Please do not worry.
