OBJECTIVES: 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). RESULTS: After 61 months median follow-up (1-209), 34 (12.5%) of the patients developed metastases but only 6.4% of the FIGO-1. MSI (especially as MSI-H versus MSS/MSI-Lcombined) was prognostic in FIGO-1 but not in FIGO2-4. The 5 and 10 year recurrence-free survival rates were 98% and 95% in the MSS/MSI-L versus 85% and 73% in the MSI-H patients (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: MSI-H status assessed by pentaplex polymerase chain reaction is an indicator of poor prognosis in FIGO 1, but not in FIGO 2-4 endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinomas.
