===Grading=== | |||
*FIGO system most commonly used. | |||
*Based on gland formation & adjusted by nuclear pleomorphism. | |||
Preliminary grade based on gland formation:<ref>{{Ref PBoD|1087-8}}</ref><ref>URL: [http://www.pathologyoutlines.com/uterus.html#endometrialcarc http://www.pathologyoutlines.com/uterus.html#endometrialcarc].</ref><ref>URL: [http://www.emedicine.com/med/topic2832.htm http://www.emedicine.com/med/topic2832.htm].</ref><ref name=pmid12496701>{{cite journal |author=Ayhan A, Taskiran C, Yuce K, Kucukali T |title=The prognostic value of nuclear grading and the revised FIGO grading of endometrial adenocarcinoma |journal=Int.

*Grade 1: <5% solid component. | |||
*Grade 2: 5-50% solid component. | |||
*Grade 3: >50% solid component. | |||
Modifiers/adjustment: | |||
*High grade nuclei upgrades cancer by one; high grade nuclei = increased size, irregular large nucleoli, irregular chromatin pattern (clumped, coarse).<ref>{{Ref DCHH|240}}</ref> | |||
