Overview

NCI Definition: Primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm involving the endometrium (mucous membrane that lines the endometrial cavity). [1]

Malignant endometrial neoplasms most frequently harbor alterations in PTEN, PIK3CA, TP53, ARID1A, and PIK3R1 [2].

Most Commonly Altered Genes in Malignant Endometrial Neoplasm

PTEN Mutation, PIK3CA Mutation, TP53 Mutation, TP53 Missense, and TP53 c.217-c.1178 Missense are the most common alterations in malignant endometrial neoplasm [2].
