Abstract:

We present microscopic study of 10 cases of endometrial carcinomas. we studied retrospectively for 1 year.For all the 10 cases we analysed the microscopic features and age at diagnosis. In this we observed that well differentiated endometrioid carcinoma is the most common type of endometrial carcinoma and common age incidence was between 51 – 60 years. We also realised that it is very important to differentiate between villoglandular variant of endometrioid carcinoma and serous carcinoma as they both presented microscopically with prominent papillary pattern.
