Prenatal ultrasound examinations and risk of childhood leukaemia: case-control study.

Patients are not disadvantaged by the introduction of outpatient hysteroscopy. Several advantages may prove attractive to patients and healthcare providers: return to mobility, full fitness, and work occur more quickly after outpatient hysteroscopy than after day case hysteroscopy. Increased attention should be paid during counselling of patients at higher risk of dissatisfaction with hysteroscopy, such as postmenopausal patients. The development of outpatient hysteroscopy is a potentially significant advance in gynaecological investigation. It lends itself to a greater accessibility for general practitioners and patients, especially if a direct referral service from a general practitioner is contemplated.
