[Problems on early detection of the endometrial adenocarcinoma with a critical examination of jet-wash and curity-technique (author's transl)]. 1982

J Landowski, and B Caniels, and W Hammans

The difficulties to find an appropriate screening-technique for the recognition of endometrial adenocarcinoma are described. Some methods of the last ten years are mentioned, advantages and disadvantages are shortly debated. Our clinical study contains 100 patients, who were examined by the jet-wash or curity-method with following abrasion. Practicability, security and the agreement of both techniques with histological results are compared. The most serious objection against jet-wash is the abdominal spreading of cells along the tubes. Curity-screenings are yet carried on with good results.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009366	Neoplasm Seeding	The local implantation of tumor cells by contamination of instruments and surgical equipment during and after surgical resection, resulting in local growth of the cells and tumor formation.	Seeding, Neoplasm
D003475	Curettage	A scraping, usually of the interior of a cavity or tract, for removal of new growth or other abnormal tissue, or to obtain material for tissue diagnosis. It is performed with a curet (curette), a spoon-shaped instrument designed for that purpose. (From Stedman, 25th ed & Dorland, 27th ed)	Curettages
D005187	Fallopian Tubes	A pair of highly specialized canals extending from the UTERUS to its corresponding OVARY. They provide the means for OVUM transport from the ovaries and they are the site of the ovum's final maturation and FERTILIZATION. The fallopian tube consists of an interstitium, an isthmus, an ampulla, an infundibulum, and fimbriae. Its wall consists of three layers: serous, muscular, and an internal mucosal layer lined with both ciliated and secretory cells.

D000553	Ambulatory Care	Health care services provided to patients on an ambulatory basis, rather than by admission to a hospital or other health care facility. The services may be a part of a hospital, augmenting its inpatient services, or may be provided at a free-standing facility.
