Fertility preservation in young women with endometrial carcinoma; report of three cases

Background: Although endometrial cancer is primarily a postmenopausal disease, 25% of patients are at pre menopausal age with 3-5% of them being 40 years old or younger. The younger groups of women with endometrial carcinoma are frequently nulligravid with a history of infertility and strong desire to preserve fertility, which may pose a therapeutic dilemma for both patients and physicians. Case reports: We reported three young women with atypical complex hyperplasia or early stage endometrial cancer that treated with conservative hormonal therapy. Conclusion: Medical treatment in young women with endometrial carcinoma who wish to preserve fertility could be considered as a prudent alternative.
