[Combined diagnostic methods for women in the pre- and postmenopause]
Unlabelled:
During one-year period, 20 women with pre- and post-menopausal problems were investigated. The diagnostic examination included transvaginal sonography (TS), hysteroscopy with separative abrasion and histopathological examination. The data from the three diagnostic methods were compared.
Results:
In 6 patients the endometrial thickness (ET) was lower than 8 mm. The hysteroscopic finding (HF) comprised in endometrial atrophy, confirmed also histologically. ET was higher than 8 mm in 14 patients, and the HF revealed endometrial polyps and endometrial hyperplasia. The hystological examination confirmed cystic endometrial hyperplasia in 4 cases, endometrial secretary phase in 5 cases, endometrial polyp in 3 cases and endometrial carcinoma in 2 cases. The authors accepted that the combination of 3 diagnostic methods of examination, applied in the described consequence, gave the possibility for precise diagnostic investigation and adequate treatment.
