Background We report two unusual separate complications after uterine artery embolization for a late postpartum haemorrhage. This report appeared important to us in view of the apparent absence of any other publications on this topic. Case presentation We report the case of a 25-year-old woman, gravida 3, para 1, admitted for uterine bleeding 7 days after a spontaneous delivery at term, in ou...

background: various uterine disorders lead to infertility in women of reproductive ages. this study was performed to describe common uterine causes of infertility and sonographic evaluation of them for midwives.   methods:to study the literatures, manuscripts published at “pubmed”, “elsevier”, “google scholar”, “sid” and original text books, between 1985 and 2015, were carefully reviewed, using...

Seven patients with secondary amenorrhoea were diagnosed as having severe uterine synechiae by hysterosalpingography (HSG) and hysteroscopy, which revealed short, narrow and/or scarred uterine cavities as cone or column shapes. Laminaria tents were used to distend the uterine cavity prior to transcervical resectoscopy to completely dissect the dense adhesions. A more traditional postoperative m...

in this study, we demonstrate the appearance of anatomic defects of the uterine cavity on hsg after cesarian section. we define different shapes such as thin linear defect, focal saccular outpouching, unilateral or bilateral diverticula (dog-ear like) and fistula and different locations such as the uterine body, lower uterine segment, uterine isthmus and the upper endocervical canal. cesarean s...

Background & aim: Various uterine disorders lead to infertility in women of reproductive ages. This study was performed to describe the common uterine causes of infertility and sonographic evaluation of these causes for midwives. Methods: This literature review was conducted on the manuscripts published at such databases as Elsevier, PubMed, Google Scholar, and SID as well as the original text ...

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 ...

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 Describe potential consequences and remedy for not intermittently auscultating fetal heart tones during travel to the imaging department and misdiagnosing a ruptured uterus on ultrasound as a synechiae. Study Design Retrospective chart review of case. Results Spontaneous uterine rupture in pregnancy is a rare and catastrophic event. Fetal monitoring is an important component for diagn...

BACKGROUND Uterine synechiae or Asherman's syndrome is a condition that can cause infertility. The present experimental study was designed to establish the rabbit as an animal model for human Asherman's syndrome using the endometrial curettage. METHODS In an experimental study, female adult rabbits (n=18) were randomly divided into intact and ovariectomized groups. One third of caudal part of...
