Overview

The majority of cases of endometrial hyperplasia (except complex atypical hyperplasia) resolve spontaneously with time.[1] If left untreated, 30% of patients with atypical hyperplasia may progress to develop endometrial carcinoma.[2] Malignant transformation into endometrial cancer is the most common complication of endometrial hyperpasia.[3] Prognosis is generally good with treatment.

Natural History

  • The majority of cases of endometrial hypeplasia, except complex atypical hyperplasia resolve spontaneously with time.[1]
  • If left untreated, 30% of patients with atypical hyperplasia may progress to develop endometrial carcinoma.[2]

Complications

Malignant transformation is the most common complication of endometrial hyperpasia.[3]

Prognosis

Prognosis is generally good with treatment for endometrial hyperplasias without atypia.
