AUB was classified by International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics PALM\u2010COEIN terminology. Endometrial atypical hyperplasia\/endometrioid intraepithelial neoplasia and carcinoma comprised neoplasia and disordered proliferative endometrium and hyperplasia without atypia constituted endometrial cancer precursor lesions. Chi\u2010square, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values compared ultrasound and pathology findings.

Ultrasound had significant positive and negative predictive value for abnormal histopathology. Several findings, including endometrial thickness (EMT), correlated to histopathology regardless of AUB type. No endometrial hyperplasia or cancer was found with EMT &lt;4\u2009mm. With multiple sonographic abnormalities, the probability of neoplasia or preneoplasia neared 1. Without abnormalities, the negative predictive value of ultrasound approached 1. Correlation of abnormal ultrasound findings to premalignant and malignant pathology was strongest with AUB\u2010O alone.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pelvic ultrasound is highly predictive of endometrial histopathology in the setting of premenopausal AUB, especially with AUB\u2010O.
