Original Title:
Μεταβολές διαφόρων τύπων κολλαγόνων και δικτυωτών ινών στο ενδομητρικό στρώμα φυσιολογικών ενδομητρίων, στην αδενομύωση και στην ενδομητρίωση με ανοσοϊστοχημικές μεθόδους
Summary:
The purpose of this study is to detect the distribution and changes to the
various types of collagen and reticular fibers in the normal endometrial stroma
in compariton to stroma of adenomyosis and endometriosis.
Materials and Methods: Group A) 20 samples of hysterectomies with normal
endometrium, (10 endometrial samples were proliferative phase and 10 secretory
phase endometrium).
Group B) 20 cases of hysterectomies with extensive adenomyosis of uterus. In
10 of them the endometrium occurs in secretory phase and 10 in the
proliferative phase. Group C) 20 cases of endometrioid ovarian cysts. The
samples came from the archives of the Pathology Laboratory of Areteion
University Hospital and classified under codes to ensure the privacy of patient
data
Conclusion .There is a specific distribution of collagen and reticulin fibers
in the stroma of normal endometria and adenomyosis, changing according to the
phases of the cycle. Vimentin is expressed both in stroma and glands. CD10 is
the most sensitive and specific and shows the stromal cells in endometriosis
even if there are no endometrial glands.
