Decade-Stratified Malignancy Risk in Hysteroscopic Polypectomy: A Multicenter Registry Analysis of 9269 Procedures
By Rina Tamir Yaniv, Tamar Tzur, Hila Goldstein and 2 others.
Abstract
Background
Malignancy risk in hysteroscopic polypectomy specimens rises with age and postmenopausal status, but decade-stratified absolute rates from large, unselected cohorts remain scarce, limiting the quantitative basis for pre-procedural risk counseling.
Objective
To estimate decade-specific absolute malignancy rates and to determine how the documented procedural indication modifies that risk.
