| Summary: | The aim was to investigate safety and efficacy of outpatient diagnostic and operative hysteroscopies.1074 procedures were carried out by experienced operators. Procedures were performed using 2.9, 3.5 telescopesand a 7 mm resectoscope between February 2004 and October 2009. The uterine cavity was distendedwith 5% mannitol. 717 of 1074 were performed with no anaesthesia. 301 operative and 773 diagnostic hysteroscopieswere carried out. Main outcomes were: success/failure and complication rate.Mean age of the patients was 32.6 ±4.64 years. Mean time of the procedure was 58 minutes ±29 seconds.All 1074 hysteroscopies were successfully performed by 6 operators. Failure and complication rates were 8/1074and 4/1074 respectively. There was only one uterine perforation. The most recognized and operated pathologywas endometrial polyp (13%). 221 polypectomies, 18 myomectomies and 23 hysteroscopic septoplasties werecarried out.Hysteroscopy is a fast and simple procedure for evaluation and treatment of the uterine cavity with a verylow rate of complications. Recent advances in technique and instrumentation will encourage adoption of outpatienthysteroscopy in Poland. |
