Abstract | ||||
Background: The main objective of this study is to assess and compare the diagnostic accuracy of pipelle biopsy and D&C hysteroscopic guided biopsy with the usual pathology following surgical hysterectomy. Methods: This research was conducted as a prospective cross-sectional analysis and involved seventy two participants who were divided into 3 groups. Group A offered formal dilatation and curettage (n=24), Group B offered pipelle cytology (n=24), Group C offered hysteroscopic directed biopsy (n=24). Results: ROC-curve analysis was employed to assess the performance of the formal D&C biopsy approach in identifying patients with malignancy. The method demonstrated good accuracy, with a sensitivity of 63% and specificity of 100% (p < 0.01). The hysteroscopic guided biopsy approach accurately identified individuals with cancer, demonstrating exceptional accuracy, with a sensitivity of 91% and specificity of 100% (p < 0.01). The Pipelle approach accurately recognized individuals with cancer, exhibiting exceptional accuracy, with a sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 100% (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Pipelle endometrial sample and hysteroscopy are simple and secure techniques for obtaining tissue diagnosis. | ||||
