Pathology - Endometritis
Acute endometritis is typically caused by trauma, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus species, and commonly occurs following childbirth or miscarriage. Chronic endometritis is caused by granulomatous disease, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), postpartum or post-abortal conditions, and tuberculosis (TB). Endometrium: Plasma cells, macrophages, and lymphocytes observed in the glandular lumen. Acute: Manifests with inflammation and discomfort following delivery or miscarriage. Chronic cases are characterized by abnormal vaginal bleeding, discomfort, discharge, and infertility. Antibiotic treatment can help prevent secondary complications, such as salpingitis. Endometrial polyps are growths made up of endometrial tissue seen inside the uterine cavity. Fibroids typically manifest in women over 40 years old and can lead to uterine hemorrhage, but they are commonly noncancerous.
