Zusammenfassung:Prior studies have demonstrated survival differences between Black women with endometrial cancer (EC) born in the US and Caribbean. Our objective was to determine if country of birth influences EC overall survival (OS) in disaggregated subpopulations of Black women. Using the Florida Cancer Data System, women with EC diagnosed from 1981 to 2017 were identified. Demographic and clinical information were abstracted.
