|---|---|
| catheter ablation | Removal of tissue with electrical current delivered via electrodes positioned at the distal end of a catheter. Energy sources are commonly direct current (dc-shock) or alternating current at radiofrequencies (usually 750 khz). The technique is used most often to ablate the av junction and/or accessory pathways in order to interrupt av conduction and produce av block in the treatment of various tachyarrhythmias. (12 Dec 1998) |
| electrode catheter ablation | A method of ablating the site of origin of arrhythmias whereby high energy electric shocks are delivered by intravascular catheters. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biopsy, endometrial | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure by which a sample is taken of the endometrial lining of the uterus. This may be performed with or without an anaesthetic. Risks include bleeding after the procedure. This test is usually performed in the evaluation of abnormal menses, heavy menstruation or post-menopausal bleeding. It may be part of an infertility evaluation. Endometrial biopsy can reveal uterine cancer, uterine fibroids, uterine polyps and adenomyosis. Often performed in those with endometriosis as part of the evaluation. (21 Mar 1998) |
| sarcoma, endometrial stromal | A highly malignant neoplasm of the endometrium, arising from the endometrial stroma. It represents one type of stromal tumour, the other being endolymphatic stromal myosis. They are differentiated on the basis of the number of mitoses per 10 high power fields: endometrial stromal sarcoma has 10 or more mitoses, endolymphatic stromal myosis fewer. Stroma sarcoma is seen most often between the ages of 45 and 50. (devita jr et al., cancer: principles & practice of oncology, 3d ed, p1146) (12 Dec 1998) |
| endometrial | Relating to or composed of endometrium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial biopsy | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure by which a sample is taken of the endometrial lining of the uterus. This may be performed with or without an anaesthetic. Risks include bleeding after the procedure. This test is usually performed in the evaluation of abnormal menses, heavy menstruation or post-menopausal bleeding. It may be part of an infertility evaluation. Endometrial biopsy can reveal uterine cancer, uterine fibroids, uterine polyps and adenomyosis. Often performed in those with endometriosis as part of the evaluation. (21 Mar 1998) |
| endometrial carcinoma | <oncology, tumour> A malignant cancer which arises from the cells which line the uterus. (27 Sep 1997) |
| endometrial cyst | A cyst resulting from endometrial implantation outside the uterus, as in endometriosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial hyperplasia | <gynaecology, pathology> Thickening of the endometrial lining due to an overgrowth of mucosal cells. Symptoms often include irregular vaginal bleeding, heavy or prolonged menstrual cycles and post-menopausal bleeding in older women. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (07 Apr 1998) |
| endometrial implants | Fragments of endometrial mucosa implanted on pelvic structure following retrograde transference through the oviducts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial neoplasms | The most common invasive gynecologic malignancy in the united states, typically in postmenopausal women. The neoplasm originates on the endometrial mucosa and may be focal or diffuse. It may progress to invasion of the myometrium. The commonest histologic type is adenocarcinoma but adenoacanthoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, epidermoid carcinoma, and other histological types of cancer are possible. (12 Dec 1998) |
| endometrial polyp | <gynaecology> A benign growth on the lining of the uterus (endometrium) that are many times asymptomatic. When symptoms occur they will usually include light bleeding between periods, post-coital bleeding, abnormally heavy or prolonged menses, pelvic cramps and a foul-smelling vaginal discharge. (07 Apr 1998) |
| endometrial smear | A group of cytologic smear's containing material obtained directly from the endometrium by aspiration, lavage, or brushing of the uterine cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial stromal sarcoma | <tumour> A term sometimes used for a relatively rare sarcoma believed to be a form of endometriosis in which the lesions form multiple foci in the myometrium and in vascular spaces in other sites, and which consist of histologic and cytologic elements that resemble those of the endometrial stroma. Synonym: stromatosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial ablation |
A surgical procedure in which lasers and electrical currents are used to remove the endometrium. Endometrial biopsy: A sample of endometrial tissue is removed and examined for abnormal cells. (See "Biopsy.")
