Substantiated approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of tamoxifen-induced endometrial conditions in patients with breast cancer

Currently, tamoxifen is the gold standard in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, which reduces recurrent tumor risk by more than 40%. Tamoxifen, which belongs to selective estrogen receptor modulators, can cause endometrial changes in women of different age groups and increase the risk of hyperplasia and endometrial cancer by several times. In clinical practice, the occurrence of various endometrial alterations during tamoxifen treatment often leads to groundless drug withdrawal. Oncology, gynecology and radiology community knowledge related to optimal methods and criteria for diagnosing different tamoxifen-induced endometrial conditions, as well as in choosing the optimal treatment tactics, will be instrumental in the unified and correct approach to managing patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer and maintaining tamoxifen therapy due to its high effectiveness.
