- Abstract
Few postmenopausal patients with a history of postmenopausal bleeding with comorbidities and unfit for general anaesthesia. These could not be treated with conservative treatments and developed moderate to severe anaemia. Diagnosis and curettage were required to treat the patients. Therefore, a saddle block was applied for DandC and polypectomy. According to histopathological reports, the optimal outcome was succeeded with a multidisciplinary team and post-operation patient care. Patients had follow-up visits after being discharged from the hospital, and the bleeding stopped. In this case series, we present three cases of treatment of heavy postmenopausal bleeding with comorbidities in septuagenarian, octogenarian and nonagenarian.
