Abstract excerpt
Various metaplastic changes may be present in endometrium, in which also cellular atypias may often be observed. Particularly, eosinophilic and ciliated changes (ECCs) occur in both nonneoplastic and neoplastic endometrium. This may cause confusion in the cytodiagnosis. This study was enterprised to investigate the possible help of immunocytochemical and cytogenetic study in the diagnostic and biologic assessment...
