Obstetrics and GynaecologyReproductive Medicine Gynaecological Oncology
Hysteroscopy is a medical procedure used to examine and treat uterine issues. One end of the hysteroscope is equipped with illumination and a camera, allowing doctors to directly observe the condition of the uterine lining by entering the uterus through the vagina without the need for open surgery.
Applications
Hysteroscopy surgery is suitable for various diagnoses and treatments within the uterus, including:
- Uterine Fibroids: Can be removed via hysteroscopic surgery.
- Endometrial Polyps: If ultrasound suggests the presence of polyps, hysteroscopy can be used for diagnosis and removal, increasing the chances of successful embryo implantation.
- Intrauterine Adhesions: These can be removed under hysteroscopic guidance to improve the chances of successful embryo implantation.
- Congenital Uterine Abnormalities (e.g., Septate Uterus): Hysteroscopy can be used to correct certain types of uterine abnormalities.
- Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Examination of the uterus to identify the cause of bleeding and provide treatment.
- Evaluation of Infertility and Recurrent Miscarriage/Habitual Abortion: Examination of the uterus to identify potential causes affecting fertility.
- Displacement of Intrauterine Devices (IUDs): Hysteroscopy can assist in the removal or repositioning of the device.
- Pre-treatment Evaluation for Artificial Insemination and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF): Examination and assessment of the uterine condition.
Hysteroscopy surgery provides doctors with an effective tool for precise diagnosis and immediate treatment of various uterine conditions, greatly enhancing treatment efficiency.

Advantages of Hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy examination, as a minimally invasive gynaecological surgical technique, has the following advantages:
- Precise diagnosis: Hysteroscopy helps doctors directly observe the condition of the endometrium and uterine cavity, providing more accurate diagnostic information than other non-direct examination methods. It is beneficial for diagnosing conditions such as endometriosis, endometrial polyps, uterine fibroids, and uterine malformations.
- Simultaneous treatment: During hysteroscopy examination, doctors can perform therapeutic procedures such as removal of endometrial polyps, retrieval of displaced intrauterine devices (IUDs), and treatment of endometriosis, avoiding the need for additional surgeries.
- Minimal trauma, quick recovery: Since hysteroscopy surgery is performed through the vagina without the need for abdominal incisions, the surgery causes minimal trauma and allows for speedy postoperative recovery, reducing patient pain and discomfort.
- Short hospital stay: Many hysteroscopy surgeries can be performed on an outpatient basis, without the need for hospitalization or requiring only short-term hospitalization, significantly saving patients' time and medical costs.
- Lower risk: Compared to traditional open abdominal surgery, hysteroscopy surgery carries relatively lower risks of infection and surgical complications.
