Hysteroscopy as an elective tool in abnormal uterine bleeding in perimenopausal women.

Abstract:

:Abnormal Uterine Bleeding is a very frequent pathology particularly in perimenopausal age (> or = 45 years). The Authors report the experience of the 2nd Department of Ob/Gyn. of Rome University "La Sapienza" from January 1985 up to September 1991. The hysteroscopic evaluation of 789 patients in perimenopausal age is reviewed. The Authors analyze in detail the main cause of metrorrhagia describing the hysteroscopic aspect and relative incidence. Finally, some considerations concerning the great usefulness that a simple and accurate diagnostic investigation such as hysteroscopy represents in a routine diagnostic procedure, are reported.

  • Extramedullary hematopoiesis in the uterine isthmus: a case report and review of the literature.

    abstract::Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EH) is the ectopic production of myeloid, erythroid and megakaryocytic elements. In postfetal life it usually occurs in conditions with hyperactive, depleted or infiltrated marrow; it is extremely rare in the genital tract. We report a case of EH in the uterine isthmus (UI) which was foun...
