@inquirer Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and to our Support Group for Gynecological Cancers. I have tried to look up “pseudo cancer” in some valid and reliable websites such as N.I.H, with the scenario you described and I could not find anything. I will continue my research.

Have you read through other websites that describe the types of uterine and endometrial cancers?

What has your current oncologist told you about your diagnosis and about the hysterectomy?

My biopsy states, "Atypical glandular cells, consistent with Serous Endometrial Intraepithelial Carcinoma" but also says "ovarian cancer cannot be ruled out". The report also says "abnormal p53 expression". Based on all of that, she casually mentioned that it could be a pseudo cancer. In a blood test, my CA-125 value came back at 6.
