Abstract
Summary. A histopathological diagnosis of tuberculous endometritis was made in 2.3% of 42 770 specimens of non‐pregnant endometrial curet‐tings and biopsies examined in Delhi. A retrospective analysis of the women with tuberculous endometriosis showed that 62% were in their third decade and the commonest presenting symptoms were infertility (47%) and amenorrhoea (26%). Discrete granulomas were seen in 60%. In the absence of a typical granuloma dilatation of glands, active destruction of epithelium and inflammatory exudate in the lumen suggested tubercular aetiology.
