【 摘 要 】

Purpose. The aim of this study was to estimate how ultrasonographic evaluation of endometrium and histopathological findings are correlated in a group of premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Material and Methods. I have studied 106 premenopausal and postmenopausal women who underwent endometrial biopsy based on results of transvaginal ultrasonography. Results. Mean age of patients was 52.298.14 years. Postmenopausal status 10 years was common in 21 patients (19.81%), and premenopausal status in 65 patients (61.32%). Transvaginal sonography reported EH in 97 cases (91.50%) and EH was confirmed by pathology in 88 cases (83.01%). Conclusion. Endometrial thickness was correlated with histopathological diagnosis much better in postmenopausal women.
