N2  - Background and aim:   In developed countries, endometrial carcinoma is the most common  gynecologic malignancy while cervical carcinoma ranks fourth; while in developing countries, endometrial carcinoma ranks second with cervical carcinoma being the most common .This difference is due to lack of screening programs in  developing countries, while in western world high socioeconomic and nulliparity increase risk of endometrial carcinoma. The Aim of this study is to identify patterns of relapse in patients with  endometrial or cervical carcinoma after receiving their primary local treatment  (radical surgery without radiotherapy) and its possible correlation with both tumor variables as well as treatment given. Results:Cervical cancer is less common than endometrial cancer. No role for parity as regards endometrial cancer as most  cases were multiparous. Obesity has a role in endometrial cancer as a risk factor
