What's new in prognosis of uterine cancer?

Prognosis represents an attempt of prediction of a future evolution, based on the critical judgement of a present status. A prognosis may have a qualitative as well as a quantitative character. The qualitative evaluation considers whether the course of a disease is modified, which means, whether it is influenced in a favourable or a disadvantageous way. In case of a quantitative statement, healing or absence of symptoms are taken as definitive criteria. It is our aim to analyse the prognostic significance of different criteria in patients with carcinoma of the uterus.
