Abstract

Giant polyp is an unusual female genital tract pathology, commonly arising from the cervix than the endometrium. It is a great masquerader of cervical or endometrial malignancy and can lead to a diagnostic dilemma and unnecessary aggressive interventions. Experience in one such case of an extremely rare protruding giant endometrial polyp in a 63-year-old postmenopausal female is being described herewith so as to create awareness among the dealing clinicians. The approach to such a case, differential diagnosis, and review of the literature is also presented.

Özet

Dev polip, genellikle rahim ağzından endometriyuma olağandışı uzanan, bir kadın genital sistem patolojisidir. Servikal veya endometrial maligniteyi taklit edebilir ve tanısal bir ikileme veya gereksiz agresif müdahaleye neden olabilir. 63 yaşındaki menopoz sonrası bir kadında son derece nadir görülen dev bir endometrial polip vakası klinisyenler arasında farkındalık yaratacak şekilde tarif edilmektedir. Böyle bir olguya yaklaşım, ayırıcı tanı ve literatür taraması da sunulmaktadır.
