Aims: To evaluate histopathological results in hysterectomy materials of patients with postmenopausal bleeding in our clinic. Materials-Methods: This study is conducted by retrospective assessment of 72 patients who underwent hysterectomy due to postmenopausal bleeding between April 2007 and June 2013 in our clinic. Age, parite, body mass index of patients and, histopathological examination of the uterus after hysterectomy were assessed. Results: Mean age of the subjects was 57.1 ±7.9. Histopathologic diagnoses were as follows: endometrial polyp (25%), endometrial hyperplasia (20.9%), proliferative endometrium (20.9%), myoma uteri(16.6%), atrophic endometrium (6.9%), endometrium cancer(9.7%). Conclusion: The most common endometrial pathologia in patients who underwent hysterectomy due to postmenopausal bleeding was endometrial polyp. Although the most common reason of postmenopausal bleeding is atrophic endometrium, atrophic endometrium is detected in the histopathological examination as a few. The reason is that the first option treatment can be medical treatment and observation.
