Does size influence your decision making for women with low or low-intermediate risk endometrial cancer after hysterectomy?  

More recent Italian (Sozzi et al) and French data (Canlorbe et al) show associations of greater tumor size > 25-35mm with higher rates of local & regional recurrence.

The ASTRO 2014 (Klopp et al) & ASCO 2015 (Meyer et al) guidelines don't appear to address tumor size which is understandable since classic prospective data such as GOG 99 and PORTEC-1 did not include tumor size as a risk factor.

Also, Mayo Clinic (AlHilli et al) published a nomogram predicting for nodal mets including tumor size as a factor. Is there a similar nomogram in the works for predicting vagina cuff recurrence including tumor size as a factor?
