Simplified endometrial testing by the Milan-Markley technic.

Recent articles have urged physicians to give increased attention to the use of cytologic and histopathologic technics in the detection of precancerous and cancerous endometrial lesions, since there is an increasing incidence of malignant disease at that site. A routine cervicovaginal smear is inadequate to diagnose cancer of the endometrium. This paper describes a technic for rapid smearing and fixation of endometrical cells. The method of obtaining endometrial cytologic and histologic material is by the use of a helix. A report on 1,748 endometrial cytologic smears is given.

Endometrial cytoloty. Using the Milan-Markley Technic.

Increased attention has been given to cytologic and histopathologic technic in the detection of endometrial lesions because of an increasing incidence of endometrial malignancy. The cervical-vaginal smear as performed by most clinicians is inadequate for the detection of endometrial neoplasia. Existing technics for the detection of endometrial lesions are costly and time consuming. An effective, reliable and economical technic has been developed for rapid smearing and fixation of endometrial cells. The routine endometrial screening of 739 patients (1143 specimens) using the Milan-Markley technic detected 4 cases of endometrial carcinoma, 1 case of carcinoma of the tube, 22 cases of endometrial hyperplasia, and 9 of endometrial polypi. It is hoped that this cytologic method will complement existing histologic detection procedures.
