“Although lack women are less likely to develop cancer of the uterine corpus than are White women, they are more likely to have late stage disease at diagnosis and are less likely to die of this cancer.”

“Among the eligible patients, Black women were more likely than White women to have late stage disease. In addition, Black women were more likely to have had insufficient information collected for staging.”

“These results suggest that time from symptom recognition to initial medical consultation does not contribute importantly to the more advanced stage cancer of the uterine corpus commonly found among Black women.”
