Hi,
It seems like your mother has a hyperplasic endometrium. It means her uterine lining is increased in size. It probably suggests an underlying endometrial cancer at times.
It is better to review with the HPE report and probably repeat the endometrial biopsy.
The treatment is usually removal of the uterus in post-menopausal women.
Hope this helps you.
