Article Synopsis
- Uterine ichthyosis is a rare condition where the endometrial surface is replaced by keratinized squamous epithelium, which can pose risks of premalignant or malignant lesions.
- A case study of a 66-year-old patient revealed high-grade dysplasia in the metaplastic squamous epithelium, highlighting the need for careful evaluation and potential surgical intervention.
- The rarity of this condition calls for more research to create clear diagnostic and treatment guidelines, stressing the importance of clinical vigilance and teamwork in patient management.
Objectives: The aims of the study were to evaluate agreement between preoperative endometrial samples and surgical specimens in endometrial carcinoma and to correlate this agreement with sample and patient characteristics.
Methods: Patients who received primary surgical treatment for endometrial carcinoma at a tertiary care center and had undergone preoperative endometrial sampling were included. Medical records were reviewed to collect information from pathology reports and data on patient characteristics.
