Diagnostic Ultrasound - Abdomen and Pelvis

Endometrial Polyp
Diagnoses: Female Pelvis
(Left) Longitudinal
transvaginal ultrasound of the
endometrium in a patient with
menorrhagia shows a
hyperechoic endometrial polyp
with a hyperechoic line sign
st. The endometrium is
proliferative . (Right)
Longitudinal transvaginal
color Doppler ultrasound of
the same polyp shows the
vascular pedicle ſt with early
branching.
(Left) Longitudinal
transvaginal ultrasound shows
a cystic endometrial polyp ſt
with a hyperechoic line sign
st. (Right) Longitudinal
transvaginal ultrasound of a
patient with postmenopausal
bleeding shows that the
uterus is retroverted and
contains a partially cystic
endometrial polyp ſt. This
was treated by D&C.
(Left) Sagittal T2 HASTE MR
demonstrates a thickened
heterogenous endometrium
with lower signal intensity
from a polyp ſt. A small cyst
in noted in the junctional zone
st that is compatible with
adenomyosis. (Right) Postcontrast
fat-suppressed
sagittal MR confirms the
enhancing polyp ſt, which has
internal cystic change st.
