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....

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...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the results of hysterosonography performed prior to in vitro fertilization (IVF) and to correlate anomalous findings with hysteroscopy. METHODS Findings from 197 hysterosonograms of patients examined in an assisted reproduction clinic between January 2012 and August 2014 were included. Enrollment criteria: patients in preparation for IVF not recently subm...

PURPOSE To examine the aspect of the uterine cavity after hysteroscopic endometrial ablation, to determine the prevalence of synechiae after the procedure, and to analyze the importance of hysteroscopy during the postoperative period. METHODS The results of the hysteroscopic exams of 153 patients who underwent outpatient hysteroscopy after endometrial ablation due to abnormal uterine bleeding...

INTRODUCTION In Mexico, the information available about the prevalence of uterine anatomical anomalies as the direct and indirect cause of recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is limited. OBJECTIVE To know the prevalence and types of uterine anatomical anomalies in Mexican women with RPL. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, we included women attending a clinic for RPL from 2008 to 2013, with a hi...

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...

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...

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...

Hysteroscopic myomectomy is the surgical procedure of choice for the treatment of submucous or intramural myomas that protrude into the uterine cavity in patients with abnormal bleeding and/or infertility. It is a minimally invasive procedure associated with a low complication rate. Complications of hysteroscopy include uterine perforation, intraoperative and postoperative uterine bleeding, wat...
