hysteroscopic metroplasty: section of the cervical septum doesn't impair reproductive outcome
Authors
abstract
the purpose of this study was to determine whether sectioning the cervical septum is associated with intraoperative bleeding, incompetent cervix, and secondary infertility. in this prospective observational study, fourteen women with complete septate uterus who had a history of repeated pregnancy loss and infertility were treated hysteroscopically. preoperative history included 35 pregnancies of which abortion rate was 62.8% and premature delivery 37.2%. three infants (8.5%) survived. the cerivcal portion of the septum was incised with metzenbaum scissors and the corporeal portion with micro scissors under hysteroscopic guidance. eleven patients achieved pregnancy (78.5%). there were ten term pregnancies (91 %). mean±sd of operating time was 31.1±9.74 minutes with a mean±sd distending media deficit of 472±186 ml. no significant bleeding was encountered. at follow up hysterosalpingography, all cervices were competent. in conclusion, section of the cervical septum with scissors is simple, rapid and safe, facilitates corporeal hysteroscopic metroplasty, and may be considered a valid procedure to correct a complete septate uterus.

The objective of this study was to ascertain if incomplete correction leaving a residual uterine septum of < or = 1 cm affects fertility outcome. Reproductive outcome in 17 women with a residual septum of between 0.5 cm and 1 cm after hysteroscopic metroplasty was compared to that in 51 women with no residual septum or one of < 0.5 cm. Septal lysis was performed with microscissors or resectosco...

BACKGROUND Septate uterus is the most common uterine anomaly and a cause for miscarriage and infertility. Existing data suggested a better reproductive outcome of uterine septum following hysteroscopic septum resection. OBJECTIVE Current study was administered to share our experience in hystroscopic septum resection for reproductive outcome following hysteroscopic treatment of uterine septum ...

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.
