Brief Summary
It is to be achieved that in postmenopausal women through the combination of Hysteroscopy and intraoperative rapid section a positive predictive value (PPV) regarding the objective illness like endometrial cancer or adenomatous hyperplasia of 100% so as a negative predictive value (NPV) of 99%.
Detailed Description
If a patient fulfills the inclusion criteria, the surgeon decides intraoperatively due to the aspect in the hysteroscopy if it is a clearly benign result or if it looks suspicious or malign.

If the hysteroscopic result confirms the hysteroscopic suspicion the patient will be informed after the operation and the further treatment can be planned right away.
