Direct uterine sampling using the SAP-l sampler device to detect endometrial lesions during histopathological examination.
To evaluate the sampling adequacy and diagnostic accuracy of the endometrial SAP-l sampling device in detecting endometrial lesions based on histopathological examination. ⋯ Endometrial sampling using the SAP-l sampler is a minimally invasive altemative technique for obtaining adequate endometrial specimens for histopathological examination. The SAP-l sampler was useful in detecting endometrial carcinoma and atypical hyperplasia cases that were not highly suspected to be localized; however, this method was not useful in detecting endometrial polyps and submucosal leiomyomas.
