atrophy

20

might be cancer. get a biopsy.

21

Q

30-50x increased risk of endometrial cancer

A

HNPCC (Lynch Syndrome)

23
Q

abnormal endometrial thickness on Tamoxifen

A

Tamoxifen endometrium gets a pass up to 8mm. At >8mm it gets a biopsy

Q

If there is concern for an endometrial polyp. Next step?

A

sonohysterogram

25
Q

endometrial fluid in a premenopausal vs post-menopausal woman

A

premenopausal -endometrial fluid is normal. Postmenopausal women - endometrial fluid means either cervical stenosis or an obstructing mass (usually cervical stenosis)

26
Q

how does cervical stenosis in a post menopausal woman manifest?

A

endometrial fluid - which is abnormal in a post menopausal woman.

septate uterus

will have a muscular and fibrous septae

biopsy

thickened irregular and cystic appearing endometrium. Tamoxifen has proesterogenic effects on the endometrium and associated with increased risk of endometrial hyperplasia, polyps, and carcinoma.

a patient who develops bleeding while taking tamoxifen requires evaluation. >8 mm thick endometrium on tamoxifen –> biopsy

59
Q
A

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH)

Ovaries are present and function normally, but they are often ectopic. Functioning endometrial tissue within rudimentary uteri may result in intraluminal blood or adenomyosis, and these patients may have pelvic pain.

One or both ovaries are ectopic in 40% of cases and may be seen as follows:

  • Anterolaterally or far laterally in the pelvis
  • Posteriorly to the anterior abdominal wall
  • Very high in the pelvis just below the pelvic brim
