Histopathological Study of Endometrium in Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
Abstract: Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) encompasses deviations in menstrual timing, duration, or volume and is a common gynecologic concern, especially among perimenopausal women. The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) classifies AUB into structural (PALM) and non-structural (COEIN) causes. Histopathological analysis plays a vital role in differentiating benign, premalignant, and malignant lesions. Objective: To evaluate the histopathological spectrum of endometrial changes in AUB and correlate findings with clinical presentations. Methods: A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted at Kanti Devi Medical College, Mathura, including 417 endometrial samples from patients presenting with AUB. Exclusion criteria included gestational causes and poorly preserved samples. Samples were processed using standard histological techniques and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 21, with significance set at p 4 mm. Combining transvaginal ultrasound findings with histopathology enhances diagnostic accuracy. Comorbidities such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension elevate endometrial cancer risk, underscoring the importance of early screening and preventive strategies.
