Abstract

Background: Transvaginal sonography is superior to transabdominal sonography in most cases of pelvic pathology.

Objective: This study was undertaken to see the clinicalpathological characteristics of endometrial hyperplasia.

Methodology: This cross sectional study was carried out from January 2007 to December 2008 for a period of two years. All suspected cases of endometrial hyperplasia were included for this study. Transvaginal sonography (TVS) performed and confirmation was done by histopathological examination.

Result: A total number of 40 cases were enrolled for this study. The most common diagnosed endometrial pathology was endometrial hyperplasia which was 42.5% cases. Endometrial polyp was diagnosed in 32.5% cases. Endometrial carcinoma was in 7.5% patients and submucosal fibroid was in 10.0%.

Conclusion: Endometrial hyperplasia is the most common disease among the women presented with endometrial pathology.
