Area of Science:

  • Reproductive medicine
  • Gynecologic oncology

Background:

  • Routine screening is crucial for detecting gynecologic conditions before assisted reproductive technology procedures.
  • Endometrial abnormalities can impact fertility and pregnancy outcomes.

Observation:

  • A patient undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) presented with abnormal endometrial proliferation during pre-treatment evaluations.
  • Diagnostic hysteroscopy with endometrial biopsy (excochleation) was performed.

Findings:

  • Histopathological analysis of the endometrial tissue revealed the presence of endometrial cancer (Ca endometrium).
  • This finding highlights the importance of thorough pre-IVF-ET screening.

Implications:

  • Early detection of endometrial cancer in infertile patients undergoing IVF-ET is critical for timely intervention.
