Incidence of omental metastasis in uterine serous carcinoma: study protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis
Introduction Uterine serous carcinoma accounts for only about 10% of all endometrial cancers but this subtype is the most common amongst non-endometrioid endometrium cancers and contributes to more than half of recurrence and deaths attributed to endometrial cancers. A more extensive surgical stagin...
