Metrorrhagia and precocious puberty revealing primary hypothyroidism in a child with Down’s syndrome
Archives of disease in childhood, 2003Co-Authors: W Chemaitilly, C Thalassinos, S Emond, E ThibaudAbstract:We report a child with Down’s syndrome in whom Metrorrhagia and precocious puberty revealed primary autoimmune hypothyroidism. The patient had a decreased growth velocity, exaggerated weight gain, bone age delay, and bilaterally enlarged multicystic ovaries. Delays in the diagnosis and treatment of hypothyroidism can lead to this peculiar presentation.

endometrial study in patients with postmenopausal Metrorrhagia
Archives of Medical Science, 2016Co-Authors: María C. Serna Torrijos, Esteban González Mirasol, María Teresa Gómez García, Carmen Ángel Parra, Gaspar Gonzalez De Merlo, Enrique Iglesias GoyAbstract:Introduction The aim of the study was to devise a strategy to diagnose malign endometrial pathologies (adenocarcinoma or atypical hyperplasia) that minimizes the number of invasive tests done (hysteroscopy, aspiration biopsy or curettage) with no loss of its detection efficiency.

Endometrial study in patients with postmenopausal Metrorrhagia
Archives of Medical Science, 2016Co-Authors: María C. Serna Torrijos, Gaspar González De Merlo, Esteban González Mirasol, María Teresa Gómez García, Carmen Ángel Parra, Enrique Iglesias GoyAbstract:Introduction: The aim of the study was to devise a strategy to diagnose malign endometrial pathologies (adenocarcinoma or atypical hyperplasia) that minimizes the number of invasive tests done (hysteroscopy, aspiration biopsy or curettage) with no loss of its detection efficiency. Material and methods: We retrospectively studied the clinical histories of 779 postmenopausal women at the University Hospital Complex of Albacete, for whom an endometrial study had been done (hysteroscopy, aspiration biopsy or curettage) with a 1-year follow-up between 1 March 2006 and 31 March 2008. Results: There were 77 cases of a malignant pathology (66 adenocarcinomas and 11 hyperplasias with atypia); 96.1% had Metrorrhagia, and there were only 3 cases of asymptomatic patients (all 3 presented endometrial thickness of > 5 mm: 10, 12 and 15 mm). The sensitivity and specificity of the transvaginal ultrasound, with a 5 mm cut-off point to diagnose a malignant pathology, were 98.4% and 30.1%, respectively; 89.1% and 99.6%, respectively, for aspiration biopsy; 83.9% and 99.1%, respectively, for hysteroscopy without biopsy; and both were 100% for biopsy. Statistical significance was considered at p < 0.05 and confidence intervals were calculated at 95%. Conclusions: In postmenopausal women with Metrorrhagia, the first action to take is to do a transvaginal ultrasound, followed by en endometrial study, but only if the endometrium is irregular or endometrial thickness is > 5 mm; in asymptomatic women, the cut-off point should be set at 10 mm. The immediate method of choice is an ambulatory biopsy

Clinical analysis of radio frequency ablation treatment on Metrorrhagia in 127 cases
Journal of Navy Medicine, 2008Co-Authors: Yang YangAbstract:Objective: To investigate the effect of radio frequency ablation(RFA) treatment on Metrorrhagia.Methods: One hundred and twenty-seven patients suffered from Metrorrhagia were selected as subjects and treated with RFA per vagina cervix.Hemorrhage volume in each patient was observed after treatment.Result: Effective rate was 100% and cure rate was 94% after RFA treatment,respectively.No complications were found.Conclusion: RFA treatment has a good clinical effect on Metrorrhagia.
