    Area of Science:

    • Gynecology
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Background:

    • Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common gynecological issue.
    • Traditional diagnostic methods for AUB can be invasive and require anesthesia.
    • There is a need for simpler, safer diagnostic tools for the uterine cavity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the technique of carbon dioxide (CO2) panoramic hysteroscopy.
    • To highlight its utility as an office-based procedure.
    • To emphasize its role in diagnosing and managing AUB.

    Main Methods:

    • CO2 panoramic hysteroscopy was performed as an outpatient procedure.
    • The technique does not require preliminary cervical dilatation.
    • Paracervical nerve blocks were not necessary for the procedure.
