🎗️ Endometrial Cancer Mayo Lymphadenectomy Indication
Use the Mayo criteria (histology, grade, myometrial invasion, tumour size) to judge whether an endometrioid adenocarcinoma can safely be spared lymphadenectomy. Instant, browser-side.
The low-risk group has roughly 1–5% nodal metastasis and ~ 99% 5-year survival, and can omit systematic dissection without a survival cost.

When to use
Identify the low-risk endometrioid endometrial cancer group that can omit systematic lymphadenectomy.
How it works
Low-risk = endometrioid, G1–2, myometrial invasion ≤ 50%, diameter ≤ 2 cm (or no myometrial invasion at any size/grade). Any of G3 / > 50% invasion / > 2 cm / non-endometrioid = at-risk.
Key points
- The low-risk group has roughly 1–5% nodal metastasis and ~ 99% 5-year survival, and can omit systematic dissection without a survival cost.
- The at-risk group has roughly 6.4% nodal metastasis and warrants pelvic ± para-aortic dissection or sentinel-node biopsy.
- Non-endometrioid histology (serous/clear-cell/carcinosarcoma) is high-risk regardless and needs full staging.
- Contemporary practice increasingly replaces systematic lymphadenectomy with sentinel-node mapping.

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
| Histology | Endometrioid adenocarcinoma |
|---|---|
| Grade | G1–2 |
| Myometrial invasion depth | No myometrial invasion (0%) |
| Maximum primary tumour diameter | ≤ 2 cm |
→LymphadenectomyCan be omitted
- Verdict:Low-risk: Endometrioid, no myometrial invasion (0%) — low-risk at any size/grade (nodal metastasis ~ 1–5%, 5-year survival ~ 99%)
- Management direction:Systematic pelvic/para-aortic lymphadenectomy can be safely omitted (no survival impact); sentinel-node mapping now commonly replaces it
- Notes:Mayo criteria (Mariani 2000/2008): low-risk = endometrioid, G1–2, myometrial invasion ≤ 50%, diameter ≤ 2 cm (or no myometrial invasion, any size/grade); high-risk (> 50% invasion / G3 / > 2 cm / non-endometrioid) needs node assessment. Contemporary practice often replaces systematic dissection with sentinel-node biopsy
| Histology | Non-endometrioid (serous/clear-cell/carcinosarcoma etc.) |
|---|---|
| Grade | G3 |
| Myometrial invasion depth | > 50% (outer half) |
| Maximum primary tumour diameter | > 2 cm |
→LymphadenectomyDissection/assessment advised
- Verdict:High-risk (at-risk): Non-endometrioid (serous/clear-cell/carcinosarcoma etc.) is high-risk histology and needs systematic staging / node assessment (nodal metastasis ~ 6.4%)
- Management direction:Systematic pelvic ± para-aortic lymphadenectomy is advised, or sentinel-node biopsy to complete staging
- Notes:Mayo criteria (Mariani 2000/2008): low-risk = endometrioid, G1–2, myometrial invasion ≤ 50%, diameter ≤ 2 cm (or no myometrial invasion, any size/grade); high-risk (> 50% invasion / G3 / > 2 cm / non-endometrioid) needs node assessment. Contemporary practice often replaces systematic dissection with sentinel-node biopsy
