Patients and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using medical records of patients who underwent operative hysteroscopy for a presumed benign lesion with a final diagnosis of EC between January 1994 and April 2014 in two tertiary academic centers. Results: A total of 29 patients were selected. International federation of gynecology and obstetrics (FIGO) classification was distributed as follows: 16 stages IA, 7 stages IB, 4 stages II and 2 stages III. Peritoneal cytology was positive in one case (stage IIIA). Median follow-up was 4.2 years (range=0.3-20.51). Two deaths were observed and were attributed to endometrial cancer. Conclusion: Operative hysteroscopy does not appear to influence stage of EC nor cause retrograde seeding of EC for 27/29 (93%) patients. For 2 patients, the impact of operative hysteroscopy remains uncertain. ER -
