[Hysteroscopy in the diagnosis of postmenopausal uterine bleeding]
Postmenopausal bleeding is a special diagnostic problem in gynecology on account of inadequate specimen obtained during dilatation and curettage for pathologic examination. Instead, hysteroscopy proves to be an ideal procedure in defining the cause of bleeding through direct vision of the pathologic lesions in the uterine cavity. In this series, hysteroscopy was performed in 150 patients with postmenopausal bleeding. The causes of bleeding enumerated by the order of frequency of occurrence are atrophic endometrium, exogenous estrogen effect, unremoved IUD, endometrial carcinoma, submucous myoma and endometrial polyps.
