Background:
Successful pregnancy in a woman with complex endometrial hyperplasia with atypia was treated conservatively with gestagens.
Case:
The patient was initially diagnosed with complex hyperplasia of the endometrium with atypia by endometrial curettage and treated with several cycles of different gestagens. After repeated endometrial curettage, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer were introduced for immediate treatment of the patient's infertility in order to avoid the risk of recurrent hyperplasia of the endometrium from estrogens. A single pregnancy was achieved after transfer of embryos obtained from intracytoplasmic sperm injection. This was performed due to poor semen characteristics. The patient delivered a normal, healthy male infant at term.
Conclusion:
Conservative treatment of complex endometrial hyperplasia with atypia in young women wishing to preserve fertility should be considered in carefully selected cases.
