摘要

Background

Endometrial adenocarcinoma, a malignancy predominantly associated with postmenopausal women, occasionally challenges the conventional narrative by manifesting in premenopausal individuals.

Case report

In this comprehensive case report, we explore the intricate diagnostic journey of a 35-year-old woman presenting with poorly differentiated endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma, defying traditional age-related prevalence. The absence of conventional risk factors, such as obesity and hormonal treatments, accentuates the enigmatic nature of this malignancy in younger demographics, prompting a reevaluation of risk stratification models.

Conclusions

The case underscores the paramount importance of early diagnosis, revealing the challenges posed by delayed recognition and the imperative for a nuanced understanding of diverse risk factors. The advanced clinical stage at presentation (T3) necessitated an extensive surgical approach, emphasizing the significance of tailored treatment strategies based on thorough clinical staging and histopathological assessment. As the medical community grapples with the complexities of endometrial adenocarcinoma in younger demographics, this case not only enriches our understanding but also propels us toward future research endeavors, instigating a collective urgency to enhance diagnostic efficiency and improve treatment outcomes.
