Hysteroscopic cervical polypectomy with a polyp snare
1Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Mayo Clinic, Charlton 4A, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN 55905, USA.
Abstract:
The cervical canal is difficult to visualize during hysteroscopy, making hysteroscopic maneuvers difficult. In our patient, after traditional surgical approaches failed, we used a polyp snare and closed the outflow channel of the hysteroscope, which allowed rapid removal of a cervical polyp in its entirety. This is an effective technique for excising intracervical lesions. (J Am Assoc Gynecol Laparosc 6(2):201-203, 1999)
