Item Are There Any Predictors of Endometrial Premalignancy/Malignancy within Endometrial Polyps in Infertile Patients?(2019) Tohma, Yusuf Aytac; Onalan, Gogsen; Esin, Sertac; Sahin, Hanifi; Aysun, Dide; Kuscu, Esra; Haberal, Ali; Zeyneloglu, Hulusi Bulent; 0000-0001-9418-4733; 31311015Background: In the literature, there is no detailed analysis on the prediction factors for premalignancy/malignancy within endometrial polyps (EPs) in infertile patients. In this study, we aimed to determine the frequency of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs in infertile patients undergoing office hysteroscopic polypectomy and identify the factors that can potentially predict an endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs. Method: A total of 957 infertile patients undergoing office hysteroscopy were diagnosed with EPs between February 2011 and August 2018. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the pathological examination of EPs as benign (Group 1; n = 939) and premalignant/malignant (Group 2; n = 18). The medical records of all patients included in the study were reviewed retrospectively. Results: In this cohort, prevalence of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs was 18/957 (1.88%). On univariate analysis, age, polyp size, diabetes, hypertension, and causes of infertility did not differ between the 2 groups. On multivariate analysis, diffuse polypoid appearance of the endometrial cavity on office hysteroscopy (hazard ratio [HR] 4.1; 95% CI 1.576-10.785), duration of infertility, (HR 4; 95% CI 1.279-12.562), and body mass index (HR 7.9; 95% CI 2.591-24.258) were found to be independent predictors of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within polyps in infertile patients. Conclusion: When diffuse polypoid appearance of the endometrial cavity is detected in an infertile patient during office hysteroscopy, hysteroscopy-guided resection and endometrial curettage should be performed. The pathological specimen should be sent for histopathological evaluation to diagnose possible endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within polyps.Item Reproductive outcomes of office hysteroscopic metroplasty in women with unexplained infertility with dysmorphic uterus(2018) Haydedeoglu, Bulent; Durdag, Gulsen Dogan; Simsek, Seda; Aytac, Pinar Caglar; Cok, Tayfun; Kilicdag, Esra Bulgan; 30202621Objective: The correlation between dysmorphic uterus and infertility still remains enigmatic. We evaluated the reproductive outcomes of metroplasty via office hysteroscopy in unexplained infertile women with dysmorphic uteri. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, metroplasty via office hysteroscopy using a bipolar system was performed to 272 women with unexplained infertility with dysmorphic uteri from January 2013 to January 2016. Of all the patients, 162 had primary infertility, and 110 had secondary infertility. Results: In the primary infertility group, the clinical pregnancy rate was 45.68% (74/162) and the live birth rate was 38.9% (63/162), and in the secondary infertility group, the clinical pregnancy rate was 55.45% (61/110) and the live birth rate was 49% (54/110) after metroplasty. In the secondary infertility group, the miscarriage rate and especially the ectopic pregnancy rate declined dramatically [from 84.5% (93/110) to 9.8% (6/61) and from 15.5% (17/110) to 1.6% (1/61), respectively] (p<0.01). Conclusion: Reproductive outcome can be impaired by Mullerian anomalies, hence, infertile women with dysmorphic uteri should undergo hysteroscopy to improve reproductive outcomes. Our study demonstrated that office hysteroscopic metroplasty of a dysmorphic uterus might improve fertility, particularly in patients with unexplained infertility with dysmorphic uteri, which was an ignored factor previously. Office hysteroscopy is an alternative option in terms of non-invasive procedure.
