Development of endometrioid adenocarcinoma despite Levonorgestrel‐releasing intrauterine system: a case report with discussion and review of the RCOG/BSGE Guideline on the Management of Endometrial Hyperplasia

Abstract: Obesity is a significant risk factor for the development of endometrial hyperplasia and cancer. More conservative prevention and management strategies are attractive due to the increased surgical risk and complication rates associated with obesity. The Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS, Mirena) has been shown to reduce the risk of developing endometrial cancer. The recent joint Green Top Guideline on the Management of Endometrial Hyperplasia published by the Royal College of Obstetricians a… Show more

“…Согласно большинству международных исследований, при М-ЭХО менее 7-8 мм в репродуктивном возрасте, а также менее 3-4 мм в постменопаузе вероятность выявления ГЭ и РЭ составляет менее 1% [29,30]. Соответственно, выявление М-ЭХО больше указанных значений требует проведения тщательного диагностического поиска в отношении предраковой и онкопатологии [26,28,31,32].…”

“…Age, obesity, anovulatory cycles-PCOs, perimenopause, null parity, diabetes mellitus and ovarian tumors-granulosa cell tumors are some of the risk factors for endometrial hyperplasia [48,49]. It can also be caused by immune suppression (in renal graft recipients) and infection [50][51][52] Lynch syndrome, also known as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, puts women at a higher risk of endometrial hyperplasia [53,54].…”
