Destruction of the endometrium due to trauma to the basal layer of endometrium may cause intra uterine adhesions, known as Asherman's syndrome (AS). There are various types of imaging method for diagnosis of the intra uterine adhesion such as hysterosalpingography, sonohysterography, ultrasonography, and hysteroscopy which is considered as the gold standard approach. Hysterosalpingogram may sug...

This prospective study assesses the prevalence of intrauterine adhesions among women undergoing secondary removal of placental remnants after delivery, or a repeat curettage for incomplete abortions, and evaluates risk factors associated with the presence of intrauterine adhesions. In 50 women, undergoing either a secondary removal of placental remnants more than 24 h after delivery, or a repea...

Hysteroscopy is the gold standard tool for endoscopic visualization of uterine cavity and it assesses a simultaneous detection treatment intracavitary anomalies with greater accuracy than other methods. The most common abnormalities, including endometrial polyps, submucosal myomas, septum intrauterine adhesions, are in infertile women. It object debate whether diagnostic and/or operative hyster...

Objective: To asses the accuracy of two-dimensional saline infusion sonohysterography (2D SIS) office hysteroscopy in evaluation of uterine cavity in infertile patients. Patients and Methods: 100 patients with suspected uterine lesion were recruited in the study. Suspected uterine lesion was based on the history, clinical examination or previous investigations suggesting uterine cavity abnormal...

OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy of a non-invasive, manual soft-tissue physical therapy in opening completely blocked fallopian tubes in infertile women with confirmed bilateral occlusion and a history indicative of abdominopelvic adhesions. DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING Clear Passage Therapies, Inc, clinic, Gainesville, Florida. PATIENTS 28 infertile women (mean age = 35.2) w...

Uterine fibroids are common in women of reproductive age and various conservative treatments are available. In order to achieve a successful conservative treatment of fibroids, functional integrity of the uterus is as important as tumor removal or symptoms relief. In this context, intrauterine adhesions must be recognized as a possible complication of conservative management of uterine fibroids...

Abnormalities of the uterine cavity can be a contributing cause of subfertility, and assessment of this factor has been suggested as a routine investigation in the evaluation of subfertile women. Hysterosalpingography has been used as the most common procedure in the investigation of infertility cause. Saline infusion sonohysterography can show uterine cavity abnormalities, which is highly sens...
