dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the hysterectomy specimen findings in the patients who underwent fractional curettage (F&C) with presence of adenocarcinoma in both endocervical and endometrial specimens. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Forty-one patients who had adenocarcinoma in both endocervical and endometrial specimens from F&C and underwent subsequent hysterectomy for surgical staging without pre-operative radiotherapy or chemotherapy at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital between 1999 and 2007 were evaluated Histologic slides from both F&C and hysterectomy specimens were reviewed and assessed All cases of endometrial adenocarcinoma with cervical involvement (stage 2) in hysterectomy specimens were also assessed and compared to the results in F&C specimens. RESULTS: Fifteen patients (36.6%) with both positive endocervical and endometrial specimens from F&C were diagnosed as endometrial adenocarcinoma within uterine cavity with lower uterine segment involvement. Only 34.1% of cases were endometrial carcinomas with cervical involvement. In the 35 cases with endometrial carcinoma stage 2, 60% had adenocarcinoma in both endocervical and endometrial specimens from F&C. CONCLUSION: In the patients who had adenocarcinoma in both endocervical and endometrial specimens from fractional curettage, the most common final pathological diagnosis from hysterectomy specimens was endometrial adenocarcinoma within uterine cavity with lower uterine segment involvement. Therefore, only 60% of endometrial carcinoma stage 2 revealed positive adenocarcinoma in both endocervical and endometrial specimens from fractional curettage.en_US
