title: [Atypical hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma (author's transl)].
abstract: Data on 167 cases of atypical hyperplasia of the endometrium and 292 cases of adenocarcinoma of the endometrium from 1966 to 1977 are presented. In 41 cases of atypical hyperplasia (24.5%) also adenocarcinoma of the endometrium coexisted. The age distribution revealed that atypical hyperplasia was much frequent in the age group from 40--59, and adenocarcinoma of the endometrium from 59--69. Out of 61 cases of theca- and granulosa-cell tumors of the ovary, 13 cases (21.3%) related to atypical hyperplasia or adenocarcinoma of the endometrium. Out of 27 cases of the Stein-Leventhal syndrome, 3 cases were atypical hyperplasia, one case adenocarcinoma of the endometrium. The data presented suggest that atypical hyperplasia might be a stage in the development of endometrial carcinoma.
