Bibliographic review on the relationship between endometrial cancer and pelvic floor dysfunction

This Narrative review examines the relationship between endometrial cancer (EC) and pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD), which includes urinary and fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and related treatment needs. A comprehensive search of medical databases and peer-reviewed journals was carried out to identify studies published from 2010 to 2025, focusing on the latest evidence. While oncologic outcomes for EC have improved thanks to advances in diagnosis, molecular classification and treatment, the effect of EC and its therapies on pelvic floor health is still not fully addressed in clinical practice. This review shows that PFD is highly prevalent in EC survivors and highlights the importance of early detection, patient education, personalized rehabilitation and good teamwork among specialists. Future research should clarify the long-term impact of EC treatments on pelvic floor function and look for innovative tools, such as biomarkers like microRNAs, to support prevention and tailored care. Integrating pelvic floor health into follow-up plans can help protect function and improve quality of life for women after EC.
