Young women with endometrial cancer (EC) can choose fertility-sparing treatment for stage 1A disease without myometrial invasion (MI). The surgical diagnostic procedure (SDP) may affect the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess MI. Here, we evaluated different SDP and compared the MI on MRI results with further pathologic results after hysterec-tomy. We retrospectively collected data on 263 patients with clinical stage IA EC diagnosed between January 2013 and December 2015. Patients were classified into four groups based on SDP, including diagnostic hysteroscopic biopsy (DHB, group 1), operative hysteroscopic partial resection (OHPR, group 2), operative hysteroscopic complete resection (OHCR, group 3), and cervical dilatation and fractional curettage (D&C, group 4). The sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of MRI to assess MI were 73.1%, 46.7%, 63.9%, 71.8%, and 48.3%, respectively. Three hysteroscopic procedures (groups 1 to 3) had a trend with a higher odds ratio of discrepancy between MRI and histopathology (p = 0.068), especially in group 2 (odds ratio 2.268, p = 0.032). Here, we found MRI accuracy of MI was better in patients with EC diagnosed with D&C. Three diagnostic procedures using hysteroscopy might interfere with the diagnostic power of MI on MRI.
