Abstract
Endometrial carcinoma is extremely rare in women younger than 30 years. Most woman with endometrial carcinoma are postmenopausal. Endometrioid adenocarcinoma is the most common form nearly (80%) of endometrial carcinoma. We report a case of endometrioid carcinoma in a young woman aged 27 years .In early stages diagnosis of such cases using various diagnostic modalities is useful, so as to increase the prognosis and outcome. Endometrial evaluation was consistent with Adenomatous (complex) hyperplasia with atypia Grade 3 Considering her age and fertility status patient was counseled for further management. The authors would like to emphasize that carcinoma endometrium should be kept in mind while evaluating young women with abnormal bleeding and endometrial evaluation should be done before starting any medical treatment.
