The presented score is based on basic clinical characteristics and allows the prediction of LMS prior to a planned surgery of a uterine mass. In case pLMS is between - 3 and + 1, we suggest subsequent diagnostics, such as endometrial biopsy, color Doppler sonography, LDH measurement, MRI and transcervical biopsy.
