Brief Summary
This clinical trial studies positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) and lymph node mapping in finding lymph node metastasis in patients with endometrial cancer that is at high risk of spreading. A PET/CT scan is a procedure that combines the pictures from a PET scan and a CT scan, which are taken at the same time from the same machine. The combined scans give more detailed pictures of areas inside the body than either scan gives by itself. Lymph node mapping uses a radioactive dye, called indocyanine green solution, to identify lymph nodes that may contain cancer cells. PET/CT and sentinel lymph node mapping may be better ways than surgery to identify cancer in the lymph nodes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
False Negative Rate of PET/CT Verses Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping in the Detection of Positive Lymph Nodes in Women With High Risk Endometrial Cancers.
36 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
False Negative Rate and False Negative Predictive Values of Lymphatic Spread of Endometrial Spread of Endometrial Lymph Nodes From a PET/CT Versus Lymphatic Mapping Procedure
36 months
Mortality Rate of Patients Undergoing Lymph Node Dissection Including Intra-operative and Postoperative Complications
36 months
Study Arms (1)
Diagnostic (PET/CT, lymph node mapping)
EXPERIMENTALPatients undergo PET/CT prior to surgery. Patients then undergo intraoperative lymph node mapping with indocyanine green solution, given via superficial and deep cervical injection during full lymphadenectomy.
Interventions
Undergo PET/CT
Given via superficial and deep cervical injection
Undergo lymph node mapping
Undergo full lymphadenectomy
Undergo PET/CT
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically confirmed high grade endometrial cancer including grade 3 endometroid, serous, clear cell, malignant mixed Mullerian tumor (MMMT) or any mixed tumor containing one of these cell types
- Patients with a grade 1/2 tumors and evidence of deep myometrial invasion or cervical involvement on preoperative imaging or physical exam
- Candidate for surgery
- No evidence of peritoneal disease on preoperative imaging
- Negative pregnancy test if of child-bearing age
- No preoperative treatment for endometrial cancer including radiation or chemotherapy
- Previous hormonal therapy is allowed
You may not qualify if:
- Medical co-morbidities making surgery unsafe, as determined by the primary treating physician
- Any contraindications to PET/CT or lymph node mapping (inability to control serum glucose to a value of =\< 200 mg/dl for fludeoxyglucose F-18 \[FDG\]-PET/CT)
- Does not meet histologic criteria
- Evidence of peritoneal or distant metastasis on preoperative imaging
- Baseline creatinine (necessary for imaging studies)
