Quality Indicators for the surgical treatment of endometrial carcinoma

 

Based on the ESGO-ESTRO-ESP Endometrial cancer guidelines developed from 2019-2020, 29 structural, process and outcome indicators were defined. They are related to center case olad, training, experience of the surgeon, structured multi-disciplinarity of the team and active participation in clinical research. Two  indicators ar related to the adequate pre-operative invetsigations, 14 to peri-operative standards of care. One indicator is related to molecular markeers for endometrial carcinoma diagnosis and determinants for treatment decisions. Another quality indicator is dedicated to the management of patients after primary surgical treatment and last five indicators highlight the need for a systematic assessment of surgical morbidity and oncologic outcome. An assessment form including a scoring systém was built as a basis for ESGO accreditation of centrs for endometrial cancer surgery.
