[Endometrial ossification. Apropos of 5 recent cases].

Five cases of ossification of the endometrium that have been seen in the course of five years are reported. Special attention is paid to a case that occurred in the post-partum period. Several different hypotheses as to the aetiology of the pathology of this condition are discussed yet again; the only one that seems likely to be possible is that these ossifications start as metaplasias. The clinical, paraclinical and therapeutic angles are also dealt with.
