Background Risk stratifications for endometrial carcinoma (EC) depend on histopathology and molecular pathology. Histopathological risk stratification lacks reproducibility, neglects heterogeneity and contributes little to surgical procedures. Existing molecular stratification is useless in patients with specific pathological or molecular characteristics and cannot guide postoperative adjuvant radiotherapies. Chromosomal instability (CIN), the numerical and structural alterations of chromosomes resulting from ongoing errors of chromosome segregation, is an intrinsic biological mechanism for the evolution of different prognostic factors of histopathology and molecular pathology and may be applicable to the risk stratification of EC. Results By analyzing CIN25 and CIN70, two reliable gene expression signatures for CIN, we found that EC with unfavorable prognostic factors of histopathology or molecular pathology had serious CIN. However, the POLE mutant, as a favorable prognostic factor, had elevated CIN signatures, and the CTNNB1 mutant, as an unfavorable prognostic factor, had decreased CIN signatures. Only if these two mutations were excluded were CIN signatures strongly prognostic for outcomes in different adjuvant radiotherapy subgroups. Integrating pathology, CIN signatures and POLE/CTNNB1 mutation stratified stageIendometrioid EC into four groups with improved risk prognostication and treatment recommendations. Conclusions We revealed the possibility of integrating histopathology and molecular pathology by CIN for risk stratification in early-stage EC. Our integrated risk model deserves further improvement and validation.
