Endometrial carcinoma; incidence in women with abnormal uterine bleeding

ABSTRACT

Background: Bleeding from the reproductive tract in women is a naturally occurring event, generally the result of menstruation and childbirth, and is not associated with a bleeding disorder in most cases. Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is the most common reason for women to undergo an interventional gynecologic procedure. The major task of the clinician is to exclude endometrial carcinoma in women and to identify organic pathology in order to manage it effectively
