About 1 in 10 women with postmenopausal bleeding will be diagnosed with malignancy.<br \/>\nCase presentation: A 62 year old female patient who presented to the gynecological clinic with two incidents of vaginal bleeding in the last 60 days. The gynecological examination and the transvaginal ultrasound did not reveal any signs of pathology. An office hysteroscopy and biopsy was performed and the histopathological examination revealed findings consistent with adenocarcinoma of the endometrium. The patient underwent a laparoscopic total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo &#8211; oophorectomy.<br \/>\nConclusion: This case report highlights the contribution of office hysteroscopy as a diagnostic tool in women with PMB, as it has a higher sensitivity compared to dilatation and curettage as well as to a biopsy acquired with a pipelle.<\/p>\n<p><em>Keywords:<\/em> office, hysteroscopy, endometrial, cancer, ca, diagnosis, sensitivity, postmenopausal, vaginal, bleeding<\/p>\n<p>p. 31-33<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daniilidis Angelos, Panteleris Nikolaos, Stamkopoulou Anthoula, Carcea Fausto, Kogeorgos Stylianos, Besharat Alexander, Asimakopoulos Efstratios<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hjog.org\/wp-content\/pdf\/2016\/83-295-1-PB.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-130\" src=\"https:\/\/hjog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/pdf-icons-free-icons-in-file-icons-18.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Introduction: Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is defined as bleeding from the genital track one year after the cessation of menses.
