Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding is a very common gynaecological condition that affects all age groups. This study was aimed at assessing the usefulness of TVS in comparison with hysteroscopy in AUB evaluation. Aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal sonography versus hysteroscopy in detection of submucous myomas in peri and postmenopausal women with abnormal uterine bleeding.Methods: The present study was prospective cross sectional study conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Kamla Nehru State Hospital for Mother and Child Indira Gandhi Medical College Shimla for period of one year w.e.f. 1st May 2018 to 30th April 2019. The study was started after hospital ethical committee approval. 76 patients peri and post-menopausal women were enrolled in the study after taking written consent.Results: On TVS- all the study subjects underwent TVS examination, submucous fibroid was detected in 10 subjects (n= 76) i.e. 13.1% (all perimenopausal). On hysteroscopy submucous fibroid was detected in 11 (14.4%) subjects, on histopathology it was confirmed in 11 subjects (14.4%). Out of 11, 8 patients underwent hysterectomy, 1 myomectomy, 2 patients had hysteroscopic removal of fibroid. 1 subject with AUB-LSM was wrongly diagnosed as AUB-P. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of transvaginal sonography versus hysteroscopy was 90.09%, 100%, 100%, 98.5% respectively.Conclusions: TVS is an important initial modality for evaluating the patient of AUB. It is quick, simple, painless, least invasive, less expensive and readily available procedure and does not need full bladder like TAS. On the other hand, hysteroscopy has a better diagnostic accuracy as it provides the option of see and treat which is recommended for peri and post-menopausal women with AUB.

Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is the commonest presenting symptom in gynaecology out- patient department. Endometrial sampling could be effectively used as the first diagnostic step in AUB. This study was done to evaluate histopathology of endometrium for identifying the endometrial causes of AUB. And also, to observe the incidence of various endometrial pathology in different age groups presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding.Methods: A one-year prospective study conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynaecologist in A. J. institute of medical sciences and research centre which included 200 cases of clinically diagnosed AUB patients. Histopathological examination of endometrial biopsies specimens was done, followed by clinical correlation.Results: The most common age group presenting with AUB was 41-50 years (43.84%). The commonest pattern in these patients was normal cycling endometrium (42.32%). The commonest pathology irrespective of the age group was disordered proliferative pattern (26.15%). Other causes identified atrophic endometrium (11.5%), benign endometrial polyp (5.38%), endometrial hyperplasia (5.41%), carcinomas (0.79%) and chronic endometritis (1.54%).Conclusions: The knowledge of endometrial pattern in a case of AUB helps to decide a plan of management. Endometrial sampling plays a very important role in management of AUB, especially in the age group of more than 40 years; i.e., the peri and post-menopausal age groups, where incidence of malignant or pre malignant conditions was noted to be the highest.

Saline Infusion Sonohysterography

This prospective study investigated 79 pre- and 25 post-menopausal women with abnormal uterine bleeding who underwent conventional transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) and saline infusion sonohysterography (SIS) and compared the results with histopathological findings obtained by dilatation and curettage, hysteroscopy or hysterectomy. Histological examination revealed normal endometrial histology in 28 patients, intracavitary polyps in 46 patients, submucosal fibroids in 18 patients, intramural fibroids in six patients and endometrial hyperplasia in six patients. The sensitivity and specificity of TVS in detecting endometrial polyps were 65.2% and 87.9%, respectively, compared with 91.3% and 93.1% for SIS. The sensitivity and specificity of TVS in detecting uterine fibroids were 95.8% and 95.0%, respectively, versus 91.6% and 98.7% for SIS. These results show that SIS is a satisfactory method of identifying lesions and that it is easy and cost-effective, and improves on the diagnostic utility of TVS. SIS is also a less invasive alternative to hysteroscopy, so should result in less morbidity in the evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding in women.

Aims: To study the association of clinical profile of patients with Abnormal Uterine Bleeding with the different endometrial histopathological patterns Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was done in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at a hospital in Karnataka, India from January 2017 to January 2019. Medical records were reviewed for all the cases of abnormal uterine bleeding who underwent endometrial biopsy. Results: There were 148 records of endometrial biopsies; >55% were in 41-50 years age group; 28% had postmenopausal bleeding; and 28% presented with menorrhagia. Menorrhagia and menometrorrhagia were equally common under 50 years of age. The various physiological patterns of endometrium (proliferative, secretory & menstruating endometrium) were noted in more than half the cases (51%). Proliferative endometrium was in 37%, followed by hyperplasia without atypia in 22% and only 3% showed malignancy; all of whom were in the postmenopausal group. Even in women with post menopausal bleeding, proliferative pattern was the commonest (33%), followed by atrophic endometrium and malignancy. Atypical hyperplasia was found to be most commonly associated with post menopausal bleeding. Conclusions: Both physiological and non physiological endometrial patterns were seen almost equally among the AUB cases. The knowledge of endometrial pattern in a case of AUB helps to decide a plan of management. Endometrial sampling plays a very important role in management of AUB, especially in the age group of more than 40 yrs; i.e, the peri and post-menopausal age groups, where incidence of malignant or pre malignant conditions was noted to be the highest.

Background:Abnormal uterine bleeding is dened as bleeding from uterus that differs from that of usual normal menstrual bleeding, in frequency of occurrence or in amount or in alteration of ow. The advantages of hysteroscopy as an accurate diagnostic technique are that it not only allows direct visual observation of pathology but also provides a means to sample the site, most likely to yield positive results. The present study was conducted to study the role of Hysteroscopy in abnormal uterine bleeding in Peri and Post-menopausal women at a tertiary care hospital. Material And Methods: Present study was single-center, prospective, Cross sectional study, conducted in women age ≥40years with heavy menstrual bleeding, prolonged bleeding, frequent menstruation, intermenstrual bleeding and post coital bleeding, Post-menopausal bleeding. Hysteroscopy was performed preferably in post-menstrual phase or post bleeding phase with a standard 4mm hysteroscope(Stryker) with a 30 degree fore-oblique lens. Procedure was performed under IV sedation with normal saline as distention media. Results: In present study, majority of the subjects (n=28) i.e. 36.8% presented with heavy menstrual bleeding followed by prolonged bleeding (32.8%), post- menopausal bleeding (21%), frequent menstruation (7.89%) and inter-menstrual bleeding (1.3%). On hysteroscopy normal ndings were present in 32 subjects (42%) followed by hyperplasia (17.1%), atrophic endometrium (13.1%), submucous broid (14.4%), endometrial growth (2.96%) & broid polyp (1.36%). Histopathology examination noted Proliferative endometrium (31.5%), secretory (10.5%), disordered proliferative phase (1.3%), simple hyperplasia (18.4%), complex hyperplasia with atypia (1.3%), submucous broid (14.4%), endometrial polyp (34.2%), atrophy (13.1%), broid polyp (1.34%) and malignancy (3.96%). Sensitivity, Specicity, PPV, NPV values were 100 % except for sensitivity for endometrial growth (66.7 %). p Value was highly signicant for all parameters (p <0.0001) Conclusion: Hysteroscopy has a better diagnostic accuracy as it provides the option of see and treat which is recommended for peri and post-menopausal women with AUB.. The intracavitary lesions (submucous leiomyomas, polyps, endometrial growth are) better diagnosed on hysteroscopy
