Endometrial Polyp in an 80-Year Old

Clinical History

An 80-year old lady presented with abdominal bloating and discomfort. 

Case Description

An ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis revealed a 17 mm oval-shaped lesion sitting within the fluid-filled endometrial cavity with evidence of a feeder vessel seen within it. Appearances are in keeping with an endometrial polyp. 

Diagnosis/ Discussion/ Treatment/ Follow up

The polyp was surgically removed and the specimen was histologically examined which confirmed the ultrasound findings.
