background: leiomyomata is the most frequent gynecological neoplasm. one of the major complications of myomectomy is intrauterine adhesion (synechiae). objective: to evaluate and compare the rate and severity of synechiae formation after myomectomy by laparotomy and laparoscopy. materials and methods: in this non-randomized interventional trial, hysteroscopy was performed in all married fertile...

Background: This study showed the patterns and grading of Asherman’s syndrome on hysterosalpingography(HSG). Asherman’s syndrome (AS)which is termed as uterine synechiae, and intrauterine adhesions (IUA),result in trauma to the basal layer of the endometrium with subsequent scarring. This may be from previous pregnancy, dilation and curettage, surgery, or infection such as genital tuberculosis....

PURPOSE We assessed the role of preoperative sonohysterography in the diagnosis of intrauterine synechiae. METHODS Nineteen patients with a suspected diagnosis of intrauterine adhesion underwent hysterosalpingography, transvaginal sonography, and sonohysterography performed in the consultation room. The patients were then treated by hysteroscopy under laparoscopic or ultrasound guidance. RE...

Since Asherman first published his series of intrauterine synechiae in 1948, only a few physicians have described the obstetric complications of patients who conceived following surgical treatment of intrauterine synechiae. We present a woman with a history of resectoscopic resection of intrauterine adhesions with a term pregnancy and spontaneous uterine rupture that occurred during the intrapa...

Structural pathologies in the uterine cavity such as müllerian duct anomalies (MDAs) and intrauterine lesions (fibroids, polyps, synechiae) may have important roles in subinfertility, implantation failure and pregnancy outcome. Various imaging modalities such as hysterosalpingography (HSG), sonography, laparoscopy and hysteroscopy are used in the evaluation of MDAs and intrauterine lesions. Rec...

OBJECTIVE Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) are the most common complication after hysteroscopy in patients of reproductive age. Intra-abdominal anti-adhesion gel reduces the incidence of adhesions, but effects on fertility after uterine surgery are not known. The objective of our work was to evaluate the effect of intrauterine anti-adhesion gel on spontaneous fertility after repeated intrauterine ...

Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) have been recognized as a cause of secondary amenorrhea since the end of the 19th century [1], and in the mid-20th century, Asherman further described the eponymous condition occurring after pregnancy [2]. The terms ‘‘Asherman syndrome’’ and IUAs are often used interchangeably, although the syndrome requires the constellation of signs and symptoms (in this case, pa...
