摘要：
OBJECTIVE: A "frameless" intrauterine drug delivery system that releases 14 mug/d of levonorgestrel was used to treat nonatypical and atypical endometrial hyperplasia in 12 women. STUDY DESIGN: This noncomparative study had up to 3 to 4 years of follow-up. RESULTS: The cure rate was 100%, as confirmed by repeat endometrial biopsy. CONCLUSION: This method could be considered an alternative to hysterectomy.
