Successful Pregnancy after Targeted Hysteroscopy for Endometrial Adenocarcinoma

Abstract

Endometrial carcinoma can affect young women under the age of 40 in 3-5% of cases. In patients who desire future fertility and refuse hysterectomy, conservative therapy after detailed counseling can be a option. This video describes a case of stage IA endometrial adenocarcinoma treated with targeted hysteroscopic resection. The patient subsequently conceived using assisted reproductive technology and had a successful pregnancy with excellent outcome. Two case series where focal hysteroscopic resection was used to manage stage IA endometrial carcinoma with subsequent attempts at pregnancy among the treated patients are also reviewed.
