Hysteroscopy in Brooklyn NY
A hysteroscope is a telescope that is inserted into the uterus via the vagina and cervix to visualize the endometrial cavity, as well as the tubal ostia, endocervical canal, cervix, and vagina. Hysteroscopy can be performed for diagnostic or therapeutic indications.
Hysteroscopy is performed for evaluation or treatment of the endometrial cavity, tubal ostia, or endocervical canal in women with:
- Abnormal premenopausal or postmenopausal uterine bleeding
- Endometrial thickening or polyps
- Submucosal, and some intramural, fibroids
- Intrauterine adhesions
- Müllerian anomalies (eg, uterine septum)
- Retained intrauterine contraceptives or other foreign bodies
- Retained products of conception
- Desire for sterilization
- Endocervical lesions
There are several approaches to evaluating women with abnormal uterine bleeding or intrauterine lesions (pelvic sonography, saline infusion sonography, endometrial sampling, hysterosalpingography). Using hysteroscopy for the initial evaluation offers the potential benefit of combining evaluation with treatment. Also, hysteroscopy avoids the risk of missing focal pathology, as may occur with blind endometrial sampling.
