[Clinical and morphological characteristics of chronic endometritis]
Abstract:
130 cases of chronic endometritis, defined by the histologic criteria, were reviewed retrospectively for etiologic antecedents and clinical course. The over-all incidence of chronic endometritis in the present series was 2.32 per cent. The presence of plasma cells in the endometrium is essential to the diagnosis of chronic endometritis. Irregular vaginal bleeding is the commonest presenting symptom. The treatment of chronic endometritis should be individualised and related to the ovarian function.
Insights
Chronic endometritis, diagnosed by histology, affects 2.32% of cases. Plasma cells confirm diagnosis, with irregular vaginal bleeding as the main symptom. Treatment should be individualized based on ovarian function.

- Histologic confirmation is crucial for diagnosis.
- Understanding etiologic antecedents and clinical course is important for patient management.
Purpose:
- To review 130 cases of chronic endometritis.
- To identify etiologic factors and clinical presentations.
- To discuss diagnostic criteria and treatment strategies.
Summary:
- The study reviewed 130 cases of chronic endometritis diagnosed via histologic criteria.
- The overall incidence was 2.32%, with plasma cells being essential for diagnosis.
- Irregular vaginal bleeding was the most common symptom, and individualized treatment based on ovarian function is recommended.
Impact:
