Histopathological evaluation of intrauterine polyps and scrapings of the uterine cavity in women with endometrial polyp described in ultrasound.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed no higher incidence of precancerous lesions and cancers of the endometrium in women with endometrial polyp described in ultrasound, who reported abnormal bleeding. Ultrasound-based diagnosis of endometrial polyps should therefore be verified both in women who report abnormal bleeding, as well as in asymptomatic women.
