Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Gynecological Imaging

Context:

  • Infertility evaluation is a complex process.
  • Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is a common imaging technique.
  • Laparoscopy is another diagnostic modality.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate hysteroscopy as a complementary study for infertile couples.
  • To compare hysteroscopic findings with laparoscopic and HSG results.

Summary:

  • A retrospective study of 20 patients compared hysteroscopy with laparoscopy and HSG.
  • Hysteroscopy identified more normal uterine cavities than HSG.
  • Hysteroscopy demonstrated higher sensitivity for submucous myomas, uterine walls, IUD fragments, cervical incompetence, and synechiae compared to HSG.

Impact:
