Serous carcinoma and clear cell carcinomas account for 10% and 3% of endometrial cancers but are responsible for 39% and 8% of cancer deaths, respectively. In this study, we aimed to compare serous carcinoma and clear cell carcinoma regarding the surgico-pathologic and clinical characteristics, and survival, and to detect factors that affected recurrence and survival.
