Therapeutic hysteroscopy

It is the responsibility of physicians in gatherings such as ours to set the tone and speak forthrightly about accomplishments and limitations. The fundamentals of diagnostic hysteroscopy are well known and now is the time for us to push forward to ascertain whether this endoscopic approach, in selected patients, is more innocuous than the conventional laparotomy. I have tried to indicate the clinician's dilemma in the search for the proper approach to several types of uterine abnormalities. As enthusiastic hysteroscopists, we must continue to analyze and document our findings, with careful concern so as to avoid poorly substantiated claims.
