Abstract

In this study, the endometrial curettage material from 60 women who were operated for ectopic pregnancy at the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department, Medical School, Atatürk University between 1997-1999 years, were evaluated. The diagnosis of the cases were verified (confirmed) histologically and surgically. The most freguent finding was Arias-Stella phenomen (reaction) (68%). Wiile only 6.7% patients had desiduali changes, secretory endometrıum and proliferative endometrium were present in16.6% and 8.33% of the cases, respectively. As a conclusıon, endometrial curettage aids in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy at a rate of 75% and still keeps its importance (for diagnostic approach). Additionally, these findings revealed that a wide variety of endometrial histologies are seen in ectopic pregnancy and any change in the endometrium, unless trophoblasts are present, might be associated with ectopic pregnancy. Knowledge of these endometrial histopathologic variance may be useful in the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.

Özet

Atatürk Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi kadın doğum servisinde 1997-1999 yılları arasında ektopik gebelik tanısı cerrahi ve patolojik olarak kanıtlanmış 60 olgunun endometriyal küretaj materyali değerlendirildi. Ektopik gebeliğe eşlik eden endometriyal değişiklik, Arias-Stella reaksiyonuydu (%63). Olguların yanlızca %6.7'sinde desidual değişiklik izlendi. Ayrıca %16.6 olguda sekretuar endometriyum, %8.3 olguda proliferatif endometriyum izlendi. Sonuç olarak endometriyum küretajı ektopik gebelik tanısına %75 katkıda bulunmakta ve hala önemini korumaktadır. Ayrıca bu çalışmalar ektopik gebelikle ilişkili endometriyal değişikliklerin oldukça geniş bir varyasyonu olduğunu, trofoblast olmaksızın herhangi bir tür endometriyal değişikliğin ektopik gebeliğe eşlik edebileceğini gösterdi. Bu endometriyal histopatolojik varyasyonların bilinmesi ektopik gebelik tanısında önemli olacaktır.
