This video shows Endometrial Hyperplasia with multiple Fibroids.
The endometrial hyperplasia has a cystic lace-like appearance on ultrasound. Endometrial polyps manifest as focal areas of endometrial thickening, and the stalk of the polyp may be seen if sufficient fluid is present in the endometrial cavity.
Imaging the endometrium on days 5-10 of a woman's cycle reduces the variability in endometrial thickness.
A transvaginal ultrasound measures your endometrium. It uses sound waves to see if the layer is average or too thick. A thick layer can indicate endometrial hyperplasia. Your doctor will take a biopsy of your endometrium cells to determine if cancer is present.
Endometrial hyperplasia is an abnormal proliferation of the endometrial glands and stroma, defined as diffuse smooth thickening over 10 mm.
The endometrium should be measured in the long axis or sagittal plane, ideally on transvaginal scanning, with the whole length of the endometrial lining through to the endocervical canal in view.
A transvaginal ultrasound is an imaging tool that shows the inside of the uterus and allows doctors to see if the uterine lining is thicker than it should be. If the uterine lining is too thick, a biopsy will be offered to diagnose the condition.
A study conducted by the Gynaecological Oncology Group on the biopsy-based diagnosis of atypical hyperplasia found 42.6% of concurrent endometrial carcinoma in hysterectomy specimens. The most useful tool to assess endometrium and make a preliminary diagnosis is ultrasound imaging (USG TV).
If an endometrial thickness of ≥ 8 mm is considered abnormal, 0.9% of women without cancer and without bleeding and 12% of women without cancer and with bleeding will have endometrial measurements above this threshold, and 95% of women with cancer will have endometrial measurements above this threshold.
A thickness of 15 mm or greater was associated with carcinoma, with a negative predictive value of 98.5%. With Endometrial thickness under 14 mm, the risk of hyperplasia was low, the authors found, at 0.08%. Below 15 mm, the risk of cancer was 0.06%.
Endometrial pathology was initially defined as an ET of ≥5 mm in postmenopausal women and 8 mm in the proliferative phase and 16 mm in the secretory phase in premenopausal women in this study. These values are clinically used criteria. However, there are no further guidelines for abnormal endometrial findings.
The most common sign of hyperplasia is abnormal uterine bleeding. If you have any of the following, you should see your obstetrician-gynecologist (ob-gyn): Bleeding during your period that is heavier or lasts longer than usual.
