Brief summary (registry, in English)

The current study aims to assess high-risk patients using both liquid-based cytology and cervical methylation testing. The results will be compared with the traditional hysteroscopic pathological findings to determine the sensitivity and specificity of these methods for early detection of endometrial cancer, thereby evaluating their potential application in early screening. Primary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of endometrial cytology for screening endometrial cancer. 2. To assess the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of methylation testing for screening endometrial cancer. 3. To perform further molecular testing on tissue samples obtained from endometrial cytology and cervical methylation tests, aiming to explore early screening-sensitive indicators. Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine the value of endometrial cytology in evaluating the efficacy of fertility-sparing treatments for endometrial cancer. 2. To assess the value of methylation testing in evaluating the efficacy of fertility-sparing treatments for endometrial cancer.
