Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the histopathological results
and menopausal status of the cases who underwent endometrial sampling.
Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent endometrial sampling according to the results of the
examination between 2014 and 2021 in the Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic of Cumhuriyet University
Medical Faculty Hospital were evaluated retrospectively for the diagnosis of endometrial cancer according to
their menopausal status. The patients were classified as premenopausal and postmenopausal, and the results
were compared.
Results: 7231 patients who underwent endometrial sampling between 2014-2021 were evaluated
retrospectively. The pathology result of 3.16% (n=229) of these patients was found to be endometrial cancer.
While 72.27% (n=5226) of 7231 patients were premenopausal, 27.72% (n=2005) were postmenopausal. The
pathology result of 0.68% (n=36) of 5226 patients in the premenopausal period was endometrial cancer. The
pathology result of 9.62% (n=193) of the 2005 postmenopausal patients was found to be endometrial cancer.
15.72% (n=36) of the 229 endometrial cancer cases were premenopausal. While 27.72% (n=2005) of 7231
patients were postmenopausal, 84.27% (n=193) of 229 endometrial cancer cases were postmenopausal. Our
study continues with sociodemographic, sonographic and biochemical data.
Conclusion: The patient's menopausal status is important in making the endometrial sampling decision
[1]. Endometrial sampling should not be neglected in postmenopausal patients [2]. The main purpose of
endometrial biopsy is to detect endometrial cancer [3].
