A member asked:
Is endomtrical cancer the same as ulterine cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes & No: The most common cancer of the uterus / uterine cancer is endometrial adenocarcinoma. A host of other cancers can arise in the uterus. In saying this, I am ignoring cancer of the uterine cervix, or "cervical cancer". It's good to know exactly what type of cancer may be present. Good luck.
