Explanatory Notes: Exfoliated glandular endometrial cells are the endometrial cells that may have clinical significance as a harbinger of endometrial pathology. Histiocytes and stromal cells do not have independent significance. Their presence should not be reported in the same context as the exfoliated glandular epithelium. Frequently, stromal cells such as these may represent abraded, not exfoliated, endometrium.
