Notes:
Method of producing tissue sections from endometrial scrapings Endometrial cytology is important not only for observing cytological findings, but also for assessing histological architecture. Therefore, we attempted to produce a histological preparation from the sample using an automatic fixation apparatus (ACF 1000) which employs a membrane filter method.After observation of the cytological features, the cover slip was removed and a paraffin-embedded section was prepared.Producing a histological section from a cytological specimen prepared with the ACF 1000 apparatus was more useful and easier than with the techniques described to date. Peelability of the cell was avoided by using a silane-coated membrane filter. Observation of the same cell cluster as that observed in the cytological sample was also facilitated in the histological section by this technique.
