background: as delay in diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is directly associated with increasing mortality, it studying the high sensitivity and specificity of transvaginal color doppler sonography as the most preferred imaging method with the most accurate and rapid diagnosis results seems to be necessary. therefore, this study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of transvaginal color doppler s...

objective: in order to evaluate the endometrium by ultrasound in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (coh) with clomiphene citrate (cc) and human menopausal gonadotropin (hmg) with intrauterine insemination (iui) to determine the relationship between endometrial pattern and thickness on pregnancy rate (pr). methods: in this prospective study, 108 infertile couples underwent ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Long-term administration of tamoxifen causes endometrial changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of transvaginal sonography and vaginoscopic hysteroscopy in the screening of patients on tamoxifen. METHODS Seventy patients with breast cancer treated with tamoxifen 20 mg daily underwent transvaginal sonography and vaginoscopic hysteroscopy, a modified r...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the efficiency of the current diagnostic work up following postmenopausal bleeding could be improved by diagnostic strategies that take into account characteristics of the women in addition to the currently recommended transvaginal measurement of endometrial thickness to determine for subsequent histological assessment. DESIGN Multicent...

We report the prenatal diagnosis of Cantrell syndrome in the first trimester. During a routine transabdominal ultrasonographic examination, a midline supraumbilical abdominal wall defect including herniated liver and ectopia cordis with a large omphalocele containing the intestines and cystic hygroma was incidentally identified at the 12th week of gestation. A transvaginal sonography examinatio...

Primary ovarian pregnancy is one of the rarest varieties of ectopic pregnancies. Patients frequently present with abdominal pain and menstrual irregularities. Preoperative diagnosis is challenging but transvaginal sonography has often been helpful. A diagnostic delay may lead to rupture, secondary implantation or operative difficulties. Therefore, awareness of this rare condition is important i...

Objective: To review the use of transvaginal ultrasound for the diagnosis of placenta previa and recommend management based on accurate placental localization. Options: Transvaginal sonography (TVS) versus transabdominal sonography for the diagnosis of placenta previa; route of delivery, based on placenta edge to internal cervical os distance; in-patient versus out-patient antenatal care; cercl...

Primary ovarian pregnancy is one of the rarest varieties of ectopic pregnancies. Patients frequently present with abdominal pain and menstrual irregularities. Intrauterine devices have evolved as probable risk factors. Preoperative diagnosis is challenging but transvaginal sonography has often been helpful. A diagnostic delay may lead to rupture, secondary implantation or operative difficulties...

OBJECTIVES We conducted a prospective blinded study to evaluate the costs, accuracy, risks, and benefits of 3-dimensional (3D) transvaginal sonography compared to hysterosalpingography. METHODS A total of 101 women aged 26 to 44 years with evidence of uterine anomalies were enrolled. All participants had routine hysterosalpingography as part of their infertility evaluation as well as 3D trans...
