Abstract in English
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding and postmenopausal bleeding
is one of the most important challenges facing gynecologists.
The results of our study showed the Pipelle not to be as accurate as
the standard dilatation and curettage especially in postmenopausal women
after measuring the endometrial lining, we related this to the technics we
used in reusing the Pipelle itself which is made for single use, and to
possibly the bias of the pathologist who read the slides.
