title: Clinicopathologic findings in endometrial polyps.
abstract: A study of endometrial polyps in biopsy specimens of symptomatic women showed 311 cases in a population of 1305 patients, an incidence of 23.8%. The highest incidence was seen in the fifth decade of life, and approximately one-fifth occurred after menopause. More than half of the subjects complained of metrorrhagia. Nearly half of the endometria exhibited proliferative changes; basal-type polyps accounted for only one-fifth of the total.
