Hysteroscopic and morphological assessment of intrauterine pathology in different age periods

Abstract

The pathology of the endo- and myometrium takes the main place in the structure of gynecological diseases. The introduction of endoscopic technologies has expanded the diagnostic capabilities of the study of intrauterine pathology. The morphological method is the gold standard in diagnosing the uterine cavity pathology. A retrospective analysis of 100 video protocols of hysteroscopy and morphological data obtained in Vash Doctor Clinic Ltd., Simferopol over the year 2018 was performed. During a retrospective analysis of hysteroscopic pictures and pathomorphological findings, all patients were divided into three age groups: (I) 25–35 years old (35 women); (II) 36–45 years old (35 women); and (III) 46–55 years old (30 women). In the early reproductive period, endometrial hyperplasia without atypia prevailed, chronic endometritis prevailing in the late reproductive period, and polyps of the uterus in the period of the menopausal transition and postmenopause.
