TLDR
Treatment of low-risk endometrial cancer by LAVH is associated with a significantly higher incidence of positive peritoneal cytology, which may be due to the retrograde dissemination of cancer cells into theperitoneal cavity during uterine manipulation.About:

Laparoscopy versus laparotomy in endometrial cancer: First analysis of survival of a randomized prospective study
TL;DR: Laroscopic vaginal treatment of patients with endometrial cancer provides a survival outcome comparable with laparotomy, and if these data are confirmed, laparoscopic procedures should be included in routine therapy for patients with Endometrial Cancer.

TL;DR: The laparoscopic surgery approach to early stage endometrial cancer is as safe and effective a procedure as the laparotomy approach.

Analysis of morbidity in patients with endometrial cancer: is there a commitment to offer laparoscopy?
TL;DR: At least one third of the patients with EC carry serious co-morbidities with an increased surgical risk for complications, and for this subgroup of patients, a laparoscopic-vaginal approach significantly reduces the rate of complications and should be the standard of surgical treatment.

Analysis of survival after laparoscopy in women with endometrial carcinoma.
TL;DR: The aim of the current study was to assess the effect of laparoscopic surgery on the survival of women with early‐stage endometrial carcinoma and to analyze the factors that affect such survival.

TL;DR: Patients treated by LAVH for early-stage endometrial cancer had significantly shorter hospitalization and fewer complications, resulting in less overall hospital charges when compared to patients treated by TAH.
