Abstract

Introduction: D & C as a routine endometrial assessment method has many problems such as high hospitalization expenses and anesthesia complications. Recently, UTEROBRUSH has been used for the diagnosis and expenses. In this study the two methods were compared in terms of SENSITIVITY, SPECIFICITY, positive value and negative predictive values. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was performed in Beheshti and Al-Zahra Hospitals of Isfahan, Iran, in the year 2003 on women who had been hospitalized for D & C with different complaints. All study sample under went anesthesia and first an UTEROBRUSH sample and then the routine D & C sample were obtained to be sent to the same pathologist. Then, pathology reports were gathered and analyzed with SPSS 10 software.Results: SENSITIVITY, SPECIFICITY, positive predictive value and negative predictive values were 93%, 100%, 100%, and 65% respectively in UTEROBRUSH group in ratio to the D & C group. The rate of unsatisfactory results reports in UTEROBRUSH group was 16.7%, while D & C had a report of 10-8% of such results.Conclusion: UTEROBRUSH is an almost new method for diagnosing benign and malignant uterine lesions. It may be performed as the screening and primary evaluation method for endometrial problems. Therefore it could replace D & C; due to its convenience for both patient and physician, and also the lower expenses and less pain suffered by the client.
