The optimal volume of surgical intervention in patients with uterine corpus cancer remains a subject of debate. In the majority of domestic and foreign clinics, simple extirpation of the uterus with appendages is most commonly performed. Extended uterine extirpation according to Wertheim is rarely used because of its difficulty in elderly patients with obesity, hypertension and diabetes.
