Evaluating and comparing the efficacy of histopathology to TVS/TAS in diagnosing the abnormal uterine bleeding: A prospective clinical study

Abstract

Background: AUB (Abnormal Uterine Bleeding) is any bleeding outside normal frequency, regularity, duration, and volume. Abnormal bleeding in menstruation is depicted using terms such as oligomenorrhea, Polymenorrhea, Metorrhagia, and menorrhagia. Objectives: The present clinical study was conducted to assess the efficacy of histopathological findings and TVS/TAS in subjects with AUB. Methods: In the present prospective clinical study, 102 subjects within the age of 21-85 years with abnormal uterine bleeding. All subjects underwent hysteroscopy and premenstrual dilatation and curettage despite sonography findings and baseline investigations. The obtained endometrial tissue was assessed via histopathological examination.
