Abstract
Background: Correlation between Endometrial Histopathology in Postmenopausal Uterine Bleeding and Transvaginal colour Doppler. Aim of the Work: To evaluation of transvaginal ultrasound and transvaginal color doppler of uterine arteries compared to endometrial histopathology in Postmenopausal uterine bleeding. Patients and methods: Prospective comparative observational cohort study. This study involving 90 patients complaining postmenopausal bleeding recruited from those attending in the Gynecology clinic in Obstetrics & Gynecology Department at “ Mansheat El-Bakery Hospital”. Results: The result found patients with endometrial carcinoma significantly in older age (P =0.009), with higher body mass index (BMI) (P <0.001). There was no statistically significant difference as regard parity and, medical disorders (DM and HTN) (P >0.05). 5 mm endometrial thickness (ET) used the cutoff point to differentiate between malignant and benign malignancy. Malignant endometrial had a significantly (ET) compared to benign endometrium being ≥ 5mm (P <0.001). Conclusion: Regarding transvaginal ultrasound examination, 5 mm (ET) is used as the cutoff point for differentiating malignant from benign endometrium.
