title: [Precanceroses and endometrial carcinoma].
abstract: Precanceroses and early screening of endometrial carcinomas are reviewed. Measures are evaluated on how to prevent this malignancy with administration of gestagens in hyperplastical endometrial changes in climacteric conditions and manifestations of endometrial estrogenization in postmenopause. On the basis of clinical, laboratory and histological investigations, the total of 31 female subjects with dysfunctional bleeding was given medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera Upjohn tbl.) in 10 mg daily doses for up to 10-13 days cyclically prior to the onset of menopause. Under the mentioned treatment any of them experienced the rebleed, and no endometrial carcinoma had been diagnosed with control vacuum curettage within one year of observation. In a total of 196 women operated on to endometrial carcinoma, the occurrence of risk-factors for the development of mentioned tumour (obesity, late menopause, i.e. menopause after 50 years of age, sterility and dysfunctional bleeding backed with anovulation, long-term estrogen administration, feminizing ovarian tumours, liver diseases, glycide metabolic disorders and hypertension) was evaluated. The present work was aimed on the screening of asymptomatic group of women. Two important signs (obesity and late menopause) were invariably determined with the addition of any other risk factor. Mentioned women are supposed to undergo regular yearly histological investigation of endometrium. Of most benefit the vacuum curettage is believed by authors as a result of comparing the validation of cytological and histological methods in order of early evidence.
