ENDOMETRIUM, BIOPSY:

- BENIGN ENDOMETRIAL POLYP WITH PROLIFERATIVE GLANDS AND FOCAL GLAND DILATION.

- SUSPICIOUS FOR A BACKGROUND OF DISORDERED PROLIFERATIVE

PHASE ENDOMETRIUM, SEE COMMENT.

- STRIPPED BENIGN ENDOCERVICAL EPITHELIUM.

COMMENT:

The endometrium sampled is proliferative with focal gland dilation throughout. The

features of a polyp (large muscular blood vessels, fibrous stroma and polypoid fragments of

endometrium) are only focally present, suggesting there is a background of disordered

proliferative phase endometrium. Clinical correlation is suggested.
