Endometrial ossification is a rare pathology, most commonly caused by retention of fetal bones following termination of pregnancy. The most frequent presentation is abnormal vaginal bleeding and discharge, dismenore, pelvic pain and secondary infertility. Here we present a new case of endometrial ossification. A 25 year old woman had attended to a gynecology clinic with a complaint of menorrhagia and vaginal discharge lasting for 3 months. Her medical history revealed a voluntarily termination of pregnancy at 12 weeks of gestation two years ago. The transvaginal ultrasonographic examination showed increased echogenity of the endometrium and calcified mass and the patient underwent D&C. The patient was referred to our clinic with a histopathological diagnosis of mature bony tissue. Hysterescopic evaluation of the patient confirmed the diagnosis and lameller bone fragments were removed. Pathology of the removed material was reported as thick trabekuller bone within endometrial glands. Posthysterescopic transvaginal sonography was normal. After hysterescopic management, the patient decided to use contraceptive pill for one year. She became pregnant spontaneously within 3 months after quiting contraceptive pill. In conclusion, endometrial ossification is a rare, iatrogenic cause of infertility which can be easily diagnosed and managed by histeroscopy.
