hysteroscopic metroplasty: report of 76 cases

HYSTEROSCOPIC METROPLASTY: REPORT OF 76 CASES

Congenital Mullerian abnormalities, particularly the septate uterus, may result in recurrent abortion, premature labor and infertility. The purpose of this study is to report the surgical and reproductive outcome in two groups of patients who underwent hysteroscopic metroplasty (HMP). Between Aug. 1993 and March 1998,76 women underwent HMP in Shiraz University of Medical Sciences' affiliat...

Hysteroscopic metroplasty.

Four patients with reproductive failure associated with uterine septa had transvaginal hysteroscopic metroplasty performed. Two successful pregnancies have occurred and a third patient is now in the second trimester of pregnancy. This method of treatment should replace the traditional open method of surgical repair of these malformations.

Hysteroscopic metroplasty in diethylstilboestrol-exposed and hypoplastic uterus: a report on 24 cases.

The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility and safety of hysteroscopic metroplasty in cases of diethylstilboestrol-exposed and hypoplastic malformed uterus. Twenty-four patients were referred for primary infertility (n = 9), secondary infertility (n = 1) or infecundity (n = 14). Fifteen had been exposed to diethylstilboestrol in utero. All patients had a hypoplastic uterus and/or ut...

MATERIALS AND METHODS :This was a retrospective descriptive study performed on 263 patients, among whom 248 patients were infertile (79% with primary infertility and 21% with secondary infertility) and 15 patients p...

Improvement in uterine artery doppler indices via hysteroscopic metroplasty.

OBJECTIVE the objective of our research was to study uterine artery doppler indices and their evolution over time after metroplasty and subsequent pregnancy in patients whose septate uterus was the only explanation for infertility. MATERIALS AND METHODS a retrospective study. The uterine arteries of 78 patients with septate uteri were evaluated using endovaginal color doppler ultrasound befor...
