Abstract

Endometrial vascular dystrophy is quite rare, and there is very little literature regarding this subject. We present the unusual case of a 38-year-old woman who experienced vaginal bleeding after menstruation for 3 months. Hysteroscopically, the uterine cavity was filled with tiny, curved blood vessels, the bottom of the cavity was obvious, and polyps were visible. No curved vessels or polyps were identified after curettage. The diagnosis was endometrial hemodystrophy with endometrial polyps. Endometrial vascular dystrophy is a hysteroscopically uncommon benign lesion of the endometrial vessels.
