Brief Title: REM (Risk Of Endometrial Malignancy)
Official Title: REM (Risk Of Endometrial Malignancy): A Proposal for a New Scoring System to Evaluate Risk of Endometrial Malignancy
Study ID: NCT01830192
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to obtain a predictive model to asses the Risk of Endometrial Malignancy (REM) in women with ultrasound endometrial abnormalities.
Detailed Description: Objective: It is often difficult to distinguish a benign endometrial disease from a malignancy and tools to help physician are needed, in order to triage patients into high and low risk of endometrial cancer (EC). The purpose of this study was to obtain a predictive model to asses the Risk of Endometrial Malignancy (REM) in women with ultrasound endometrial abnormalities.Women, between 45 and 80 years, diagnosed with ultrasound endometrial abnormalities and scheduled to have surgery were enrolled on a prospective study at Department of Gynaecologic Oncology of Campus Bio-Medico of Rome. Preoperative clinical, ultrasound and laboratory features were taken into account. Logistic regression algorithm was utilized to categorize patients into low and high risk groups for EC.
