Monckeberg's arteriosclerosis: a case report of chronic endometritis presenting as postmenopausal bleeding.

OBJECTIVE
Chronic endometritis is rarely reported in the postmenopausal population. Here, we describe a case of chronic endometritis in a patient who had undergone premature menopause that was later found to have Monckeberg arteriosclerosis (MocA) of the uterine vessels.


METHODS
A review of the literature revealed a single report of MocA affecting the uterine vessels and no reports in a patient who had undergone premature menopause. A case of a 69-year-old presenting with postmenopausal bleeding and having the diagnosis of chronic endometritis is described.


RESULTS
Following definitive management with hysterectomy, final histopathology showed MocA of the uterine vessels.


CONCLUSIONS
The lack of reviews of chronic endometritis in postmenopausal women reveals a gap in the literature. Further studies are necessary to review MocA and decreased uterine perfusion in the context of a possible predisposition to chronic endometrial infection and/or inflammation.
