Abstract
To analyze the prognostic value of microsatellite instability (MSI) in a population-based study of FIGO stage 1-4 endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinomas. Study Design: Survival analysis in 273 patients of MSI status and clinico-pathologic features. Using a highly sensitive pentaplex polymerase chain reaction to establish MSI status, cases were divided into microsatellite stable (MSS), MSI-low (MSI-L, 1 marker positive) and MSI-high (MSI-H, 2-5 markers positive).
