'''Organ''': Uterine tissue acquired by curettage


'''Description''': The uterine tissue morphology is mostly lost during the curettage. We can only see fragments of the endometrium. Normal uterine glands can be seen, however some of them have a (sometimes extremely) enlarged lumen. Normal uterine stroma can be seen. The total number of glands are increased compared to physiological.
