pubmed-article:10518384 | pubmed:abstractText | It is a well known fact that there is no invasive uterine carcinoma which was not a "carcinoma in situ" in the initial stage. On the basis of this knowledge it is evident that active systematic detection of malignant uterine neoplasms is of great importance. Incidence of cervical carcinoma had been at the first place for years, but in the last 10 years the number of diagnosed cancer of corpus uteri has significantly increased. Uterine hemorrhage is a problem at any age, but at menopause and senium it is of special importance, because at this age every hemorrhage must be considered carcinomatous, unless something else is established (1). Out of all methods, histopathological analysis of the biopsy material is the most reliable, but only complete, not fractional, uterine abrasion has a full diagnostic value. Explorative curettage was performed in all cases of polypectomies and cervix biopsies (2,3,4). | lld:pubmed |
