🧬 FIGO 2023 reclassified #EndometrialCancer:
⬆️ 26.0% upstaged
⬇️ 4.8% downstaged
⚠️ With 21 substages, the system is overly complex, producing small subgroups and unstable estimates.
❌ Superiority over FIGO 2009 could not be established.

From 1 July, some women aged 25-49 will be invited for cervical screening every 5 years instead of 3.
This change is based on strong evidence showing that people without HPV are at very low risk of cervical cancer.
If you missed your last one, book an appointment with your GP.
