Abstract:
In 38 patients observed for postmenopausal bleeding endometrial thickness measured by vaginosonography before diagnostic curettage was compared with histological results. In 30 patients with endometrial thickness below 4 mm only inactive endometrium was found, whereas in 8 patients with endometrial thickness above 4 mm different pathologies were present. The role of vaginosonography in primary prevention of endometrial oncology is discussed.
