My biopsy says FIGO grade 2 with 6% myometrial invasion. My Dr notes say Stage 1A grade 2. I am also dMMR.
My hysterectomy came about due to vaginal bleeding post menopause, which is performed August 2020. I had no other treatment after the hysterectomy in March 2023 I developed a discharge which was clear andwatery. That’s when I was diagnosed with the recurrence. I had low dose chemotherapy cisplatin once a week for five weeks, at the same time I received external radiation five days a week for five weeks. After the external radiation, I had five treatments of brachytherap.
My scans at the time showed quite a decrease in size and the doctors thought that what was showing up was scar tissue and inflammation from the radiation. I kept getting scans periodically and then in November 2024 it popped up again and because I could no longer get radiation, I have been on immunotherapysince November 2024 and I appear to be doing fine. My next scan will be in July. I also had a second opinion at Memorial Sloan Kettering in December 20 24 and that doctor agreed with my treatments here in Florida. I hope this helps.

Thank you so much for your reply. Does recurrence only happened in the cuff? It is good to hear that your immunotherapy works for you, multiple clinical trials already shows immunotherapy works for dMMR patients, even works for pMMR patients.

Mine is Grade 1, Stage 1A, 8% myometrial invasion, dMMR. No treatment so far after hesterecomy, which was performed 4 months ago. I have no bleeding at all, only found through ultrasound and biopsy. Thanks!
