ABSTRACT
To reveal the hysteroscopic findings among postmenopausal women who were subjected to diagnostic hysteroscopy method. This is a descriptive study which was conducted at King Hussein Medical Center within the period from January 2008 to January 2010, on a total of 215 postmenopausal women. Mean age of the study group was 58 years [range 46-70]. Hysteroscopy was carried out to detect intracavitary disease, either by hysteroscopic view or using histopathological biopsies for other diseases. Simple descriptive statistics [frequency, mean age and percentage] were used to describe the study variables. The histopathological and hysteroscopic findings were as follows: polyps in 122 [56.7%] patients, atrophic endometrium in 44 [20.5%] patients, synechia in 22 [10.2%] patients, fibroid in 13 [4.6%] patients, endometrial hyperplasia in seven [3.3%] patients, focal thickening seven [3.3%] patients. The most frequent findings at hysteroscopy for postmenopausal women with bleeding were benign lesions. Hysteroscopy using biopsy is a selective method for detecting intracavitary uterine disease
