The typical polypoid adenomyoma is a special form of endometrial polyp: a case-controlled study with a large sample size.
European Journal of Medical Research 2023 August 31
PURPOSE: To investigate clinicopathological differences between typical endometrial polypoid adenomyomas (TPAs) and endometrial polyps (EPs) and to determine the risk factors and recurrence of TPA and further clarify the pathogenesis and treatment of TPA.
METHODS: We reviewed the medical records of 488 women with TPA and 500 women with EP. Then, we analyzed the clinical features and manifestations, ultrasonic manifestations, hysteroscopic morphology, and pathological results. In addition, 360 cases of TPA and 367 cases of EP were followed up for 22-77 months and the risk factors TPA recurrence were assessed.
RESULTS: We detected significant differences in age, menopausal status, body mass index (BMI), the number of pregnancies, and parity between the two groups (P < 0.05). Hysteroscopy revealed that the incidence of polyps > 3 cm in diameter and multiple polyps in the TPA group was significantly higher than that in the EP group (P < 0.01). In addition, the rate of recurrence in the TPA group was significantly higher than that in the EP group (P < 0.05). Over three pregnancies, menopause, curettage, and the application of polyp clamps were all identified as independent risk factors for the recurrence of TPA (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: In addition to high estrogen levels, endometrial injury was identified as the main contributor to TPA pathogenesis. Hysteroscopic electrotomy was identified as the preferential treatment for TPA to avoid recurrence, especially in women with risk factors. Increasing the depth of ablation may prevent the recurrence of TPA more efficiently.
