| description | Endometrial polyps represent benign focused growths of endometrium with the prevalnece of 5-10 in 100 patients older than 30 years of age. The most frequent symptom is irregular uterine bleeding. Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS) is the least invasive and the simplest method for detection of an abnormality of the uterine cavity. In this paper we have presented a case of a65- year old patient with endometrial polypus, irregular uterine bleeding referred to hyperplasia endometria as a working diagnosis. Using the Saline Infusion Sonography check-up the diagnosis of endometrial polypus was established including its localization, diameter and other diagnostic parameters. The results of this study have shown that the Saline Infusion Sonography provides more information about the state of uterocervical cavity as compared to the standard transvaginal sonography. |
