title: [Etiology of perimenopausal organic hemorrhages of uterine origin].
abstract: The authors study the etiologies of organic uterine bleeding during the menopause in 66 of their own cases. Benign lesions of the endometrium and of the myometrium are, of course, the most common, but the possibility of pregnancy and particularly that of malignant lesions must not be forgotten. The authors emphasize the importance of obtaining endometrial samplings, in particular using the Inocurette, and of the importance of making a histological diagnosis. They seem to be able to define a population at increased risk for cancer, which should be followed more closely.
