Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy in the world. It is mostly detected in postmenopausal women, but it can also occur in women of fertile age who need fertility-sparing therapy. An early diagnosis is the main objective for the correct management of these patients, making it possible to use a fertility-sparing treatment approach without exposing the patients to the risk of cancer progression. In this review, we discuss the role of sonography and hysteroscopy in the detection of intrauterine neoplasm in women of childbearing age.

The aging obstetric population, combined with more frequent myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) diagnoses in younger patients, will result in hematologic providers increasingly caring for MPN patients in pregnancy. There are special considerations that pertain to management of pregnancy in MPN patients. This includes increased risks of thrombosis and hemorrhage as well as pregnancy complications that are likely related to placental dysfunction associated with an MPN diagnosis, including preeclampsia, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth restriction.
