Herman D. Optimization of complex treatment of endometrial polyps.

The work is devoted to the issue of effectiveness improvement in treatment of endometrial polyps in women of reproductive age. Highlighted are separate clinical and pathogenetic variations of endometrial polyps: isolated polyps, micropolyps, polyps in conjunction with micropolyps. In the course of study, it was found that progesterone deficiency and local immune imbalance with severe hypofunctional NK cells against viral and fungal infestations result in excessive endometrial cell proliferation and development of an isolated polyp. The case of a polyp merging with micropolyps potentiates an active inflammatory process alongside all of the mechanisms mentioned above. Micropolyps as a macroscopic manifestation of an active inflammatory process in chronic endometritis are characterized by focal infiltrates of leukocytes (CD45), macrophages (CD68), plasmacells (CD138) and NK (CD56) cells, whose activity leads to excess abnormal proliferation of endometrium, even in the absence of hormone receptor disorders. Developed and tested is a comprehensive, pathogenically justified and differentiated therapy system for endometrial polyps, which enables to eliminate inflammation, contributes to sustained therapeutic effect and restores reproductive function.
