Is resectoscopic treatment of atypical endometrial polyps a safe option?
Article Abstract:
The long-term efficacy and prognosis of hysteroscopic resection and coagulation of the polyp base of endometrial polyps with focal atypia in postmenopausal women is evaluated. Adenomatous polyps with atypia can be treated resectoscopically if the treatment is associated with an accurate histologic examination of the polyp base and its eventual involvement and the features of the remaining uterine mucosa.
