Hysteroscopy
It is a specially designed camera, about the size of a pencil, that is inserted intravaginally through the cervix.
It is done under general anesthesia, although in some cases it can be done without. With this method, we can literally see the entire endometrial cavity and intervene selectively if necessary, which is why it has an advantage over the classic scraping of the uterus, which is a “blind” technique. Hysteroscopy can simply be diagnostic, thus ruling out a suspected pathology, or invasive, that is, treating a lesion. The operations that can be done in this way are the removal of polyps, fibroids, the solution of adhesions and uterine septum, the removal of trophoblast remnants. As we mentioned above, with the hysteroscopy we can intervene selectively on the pathological points of the uterus, always having visual contact, reducing the damage to the adjacent healthy tissues to a minimum.
