Descriptor hiperplasia endometrial
Scope note: Proliferación benigna del ENDOMETRIO del ÚTERO. La hiperplasia endometrial se clasifica por su citología y tejido glandular. Hay hiperplasia simple, compleja (adenomatosa sin atipia) e hiperplasia atípica que representa también el riesgo ascendente de cambio a malignidad.

Scope note: Benign proliferation of the ENDOMETRIUM in the UTERUS. Endometrial hyperplasia is classified by its cytology and glandular tissue. There are simple, complex (adenomatous without atypia), and atypical hyperplasia representing also the ascending risk of becoming malignant.

Endometrial Hyperplasia - Preferred
Concept UI M0007412
Scope note Benign proliferation of the ENDOMETRIUM in the UTERUS. Endometrial hyperplasia is classified by its cytology and glandular tissue. There are simple, complex (adenomatous without atypia), and atypical hyperplasia representing also the ascending risk of becoming malignant.
Preferred term Endometrial Hyperplasia
Entry term(s) Endometrial Hyperplasias
Hyperplasia, Endometrial
Hyperplasias, Endometrial
Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia - Narrower
Concept UI M0406716
Scope note A benign form of endometrial hyperplasia with increased number of cells with atypia. The atypical cells are large and irregular and have an increased nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio. The risk of progression to endometrial carcinoma rises with the increasing degree of cell atypia.

Concept UI M0406718
Scope note A benign form of endometrial hyperplasia with crowded endometrial glands and little stroma between the glands. Complex hyperplasia has low risk of progression to endometrial carcinoma.
