Purpose: to perform a census about the frequency of endometrial adenocarcinoma of women submitted to diagnostic hysteroscopy in five Brazilian hysteroscopic centers in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Caxias do Sul and Porto Alegre. Methods: information was collected from standard questionnaires about the presence of endometrial adenocarcinoma, hysteroscopic staging and histologic type, in pre- and postmenopausal women. Results: among 6,466 hysteroscopic procedures, endometrial adenocarcinoma was present in 92 patients (1.4%), confirmed by histology in 79 (1.2%) cases. For the hysteroscopic diagnosis of endometrial adenocarcinoma confirmed by histology, a sensitivity of 85.9%, specificity of 100%, positive predictive value of 100% and negative predictive value of 98.6% were obtained. In the premenopausal group, among 3,845 hysteroscopic exams, endometrial cancer was present in 83 (3.2%) and confirmed by histology in 71 cases (2.7%). Conclusions: this study points out the importance of epidemiological methods in the diagnostic and prevention programs of endometrial cancer, specially in postmenopause, revealing the need for further epidemiological studies on endometrial adenocarcinoma diagnostis and prevention programs.

Purpose: to evaluate the correlation between the laparoscopic aspects and the stromal histologic findings of peritoneal endometriosis in order to understand the evolutive theory of endometriosis. Methods: sixty-seven women were submitted to laparoscopy for pelvic pain, infertility, ovarian tumor and other pathologies. A peritoneal biopsy was taken from the typical (puckered black) and atypical endometriotic implants. The different aspects of endometriosis were classified as follows: red lesions (Group V), black lesions (Group N) and white lesions (Group B). The histological sections were examined according to a standardized protocol. The histologic parameters used were: depth of the lesion, presence of hemosiderin, vascularization of the stroma and fibrotic tissue in stroma. Results: regarding lesion depth, there were significant differences between the groups. Red lesions were located consistently on the surface of the peritoneum (100%) and black lesions were superficial in 55.6%, intermediate in 38.9% and deep in 5.5%. White lesions were superficial in 28%, intermediate in 68% and deep in 4%. The presence of hemosiderin showed equivalent results in the 3 groups. The large stromal vascularization was present in the red lesions (60%), which a statistically significant difference compared to the other groups. Fibrotic tissue was present in 70.6% of the white lesions (group B), a fact that was significantly different when compared to groups V and N. Conclusion: the parameters analyzed in this study confirmed the importance of the evolutive theory of endometriosis.
