Unlabelled:
The endometrium has a few possibilities to express the underlying pathology, even if there may be a potential dangerous one. This study is searching for a relationship between the ultrasound images of endometrial hyperplasias and the respective pathologic exams.
Material And Method:
We analyzed 385 cases of endometrial hyperplasias hospitalized in the "Elena Doamna" Maternity from Iaşi, Romania during the period 2000-2005.
Results:
For all the cases included, the endometrium had a width from 2 mm to 20 mm, with a median of 9mm. The hyperplasias were: 70.18% simple hyperplasias without atypia, 18.52% complex hyperplasias without atypia, 7.1% complex hyperplasias with atypia and 4.17% secretory hyperplasias. There were no differences between the aspects or thickness of the endometrium in regard with any of the types of hyperplasias.
Conclusions:
Ultrasounds exams have a limited role to diagnose endometrial hyperplasias. They only selects patients for mandatory other investigations. Key words:
