    A new outpatient device, Abradul, for endometrial curettage shows nearly 100% accuracy. This reliable and economical procedure is promising for routine screening of at-risk patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic oncology
    • Surgical pathology

    Background:

    • Endometrial curettage is a common gynecological procedure.
    • Accurate histological diagnosis is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the reliability of a new outpatient device, Abradul, for endometrial curettage.
    • To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the Abradul device compared to traditional methods.

    Main Methods:

    • A prospective study involving 61 patients undergoing hysterectomy.
    • Histological analysis of curettage samples obtained with the Abradul device.
    • Blind comparison of Abradul samples with surgical hysterectomy specimens.

    Main Results:

    • The Abradul device demonstrated a high correlation (nearly 100%) with surgical specimens.
