An endometrial thickness greater than 10mm on ultrasound following a dilation and curettage or spontaneous abortion suggests retained products of conception (RPC) which is 80% sensitive. A thickness of 11mm or 14mm after a medical termination of pregnancy indicates an 18% or 50% chance respectively that a patient may require surgical intervention to fully terminate the pregnancy. There is no clear cutoff for thickness or volume on ultrasound to differentiate between RPC and decidua alone following a miscarriage. A thickness of 11.25mm or more has the best diagnostic performance for detecting RPC after a first trimester spontaneous abortion.
