• myometrium
  2 April 2017

  |WKP|
  Definition: The myometrium is the middle layer of the uterine wall, consisting mainly of uterine smooth muscle cells (also called uterine myocytes), but also of supporting stromal and vascular tissue. Its main function is to induce uterine contractions.

  Endometrial biopsy
  The best way to prove or disprove that ovulation has taken place is to take an endometrial sample on cycle day 22 or later, preferably at the onset of uterine bleeding.
  By obtaining samples at the time of early uterine bleeding, the pathologist will be able to determine whether the bleeding is caused by the (...)

• uterine adenosarcoma
  19 March 2017

  Definition: Adenosarcoma is an uncommon biphasic tumor composed of malignant stromal and benign epithelial components. See also : uterine adenosarcoma
  Uterine adenosarcoma usually affects postmenopausal women, presenting with pelvic pain or vaginal bleeding but there may be no symptoms at all. The corpus of the uterus is the most common site. It usually carries a good prognosis unless accompanied by deep myometrial invasion or stromal overgrowth.
  Grossly, these tumors are usually polypoid (...)

• CEH with atypia
  17 January 2017

  complex atypical hyperplasia; complex hyperplasia with atypia
  Definition: In CEH with atypia, the endometrial glands are highly irregular in size and shape and show frequent outpouchings. The atypia is characterized by enlarged round nuclei, irregular chromatin distribution, and prominent nucleoli.
  The morphologic features of complex hyperplasia with atypia overlap with those of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and a distinction between the two may not always be possible on a biopsy. (...)

• CEH without atypia
  17 January 2017

  Definition : In complex hyperplasia, the glands are irregular in size and shape with branching and outpouchings. Cytologic atypia is absent. About 3% of such cases progress to adenocarcinoma.
