Study objective: To describe the evolutive endometrial hysteroscopic patterns in patients undergoing long-term tamoxifen treatment. Design: Prospective analysis. Analysis of variance test with post hoc :Bonferroni test and homogeneity test of percentages were used for hypothesis contrast between the groups. Design classification: Canadian task force II-2. Setting: Four Spanish tertiary care hospitals. Patients: A total of 278 patients with breast cancer diagnosed between 2002 and 2004, which completed 5-years adjuvant therapy with tamoxifen. Interventions: Ultrasonography and hysteroscopic explorations were performed before starting the treatment and then at yearly intervals during the 5 years of adjuvant treatment. Measurements and main results: Hysteroscopic endometrial changes were significant throughout the years of treatment. Tamoxifen-exposed endometria present five different patterns: atrophic, cystic, hypervascularized, endometrial polyp, and suspicious of malignancy. Endometrial carcinoma appeared in four patients (1.5%) that bled during the follow-up. Conclusion: Tamoxifen produces five different endometrial patterns that evolve dynamically throughout the 5 years of treatment.
