Abstract
In our study we present two cases that have been diagnosed as stage I endometrial carcinoma where a Levonorgestrel intrauterine releasing system (LNG-IUS) referred to as Mirena was used as a primary treatment because the standard surgical treatment was deemed to carry an unacceptable risk of death. Histopathology report after therapy showed complete regression of endometrial cancer.
