Background:
Endometrial cancer recurrences in the vagina after surgery and radiation therapy are traditionally treated with pelvic exenteration. However, this operation is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and thus alternative surgical options should be explored.
Case:
We present a case of laparoscopic resection of recurrent endometrial cancer at the vaginal apex in the setting of prior brachytherapy and 32P intraperitoneal therapy.
Conclusion:
Laparoscopic radical parametrectomy and partial vaginectomy may be an option for patients with small central recurrences of endometrial cancer.
