Study of Morphological Patterns of Endometrial Curettings in Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding: A Study of 161 Cases, with Review of Literature

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Pathology: Research and Practice - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is irregular uterine bleeding that occurs in the absence of recognizable pelvic pathology, general medical disease, or pregnancy. Endometrial biopsy is often the first diagnostic tool in a case of dysfunctional uterine bleeding. A total of 161 cases were analysed during a period of two years, from January 2015 to January 2017 in the Department of Pathology, BGS Global Institute of Medical Sciences. The frequency of the various endometrial patterns with comparison of the patterns in different age groups was observed and documented.
