Fig 1.
Office hysterosocpic examination of endometrial polyps.
(A) Pedunculated endometrial polyps are defined with the angle of polyp surface to endometrium < 90 degrees (arrow). (B) Sessile endometrial polyps are shown with an angle ≥ 90 degrees (arrowhead). (C) Presence of intracavitary bleeding is noted. (D, E) A woman has three endometrial polyps, and the follow-up hysteroscopy does not find polyp recurrence 3 months after polypectomy. (F, G) Another woman has ten endometrial polyps, and postoperative hysteroscopy reveals polyp recurrence 8 months after polypectomy.
