Implementation of Office Hysteroscopy for the Evaluation and Treatment of Intrauterine Pathology
We describe miniaturized equipment for use in the office setting and "no-touch" vaginoscopic approaches to limit patient discomfort. With appropriate training and experience, office hysteroscopy presents a simple and cost-effective modality for optimizing gynecologic care for our patients.PMID:35926213 | DOI:10.1097/AOG.0000000000004898 (Source: Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Human Endometrium ‐Derived Adventitial Cell Spheroid‐Loaded Antimicrobial Microneedles for Uterine Regeneration
The flexible microneedles fabricated with gelatin methacryloyl and lactoferrin exhibit rapid degradation and antimicrobial activity. Benefiting from microwells on microneedles, human endometrium-derived adventitial cells (En-ADVs) rapidly form 3D cell spheroids, displaying higher potentials of cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration in comparison to dissociated cells. Transplantation of En-ADV spheroid-loaded hierarchical microneedles (MN/En-ADV) patches efficiently repairs the injured uterus and restores the reproductive function in Asherman's syndrome model rats. AbstractAsherman's syndrome (AS) occurs as a co...

Hysteroscopic and ultrasound evaluation of a novel degradable polymer film for the prevention of intrauterine adhesion formation after hysteroscopic surgery
Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) are dense or filmy bands of scar tissue between the inner walls of the uterine cavity. They can be partial or complete resulting in a reduction in the uterine cavity volume and its deformation or, in severe cases, its complete obliteration [1]. IUAs can occur following intrauterine diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that lead to endometrial trauma resulting in scarring, adhesions or fusion of the opposing uterine walls. Women who have IUAs are sometimes asymptomatic, however, infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, menstrual abnormalities and pelvic pain are common presenting complaints in s...

First Use Of A Novel Barrier Film In An Infertile Woman With Severe Asherman Syndrome.
A 38-year-old woman (G6P0) referred with oligomenorrhea and secondary subfertility. A diagnostic hysteroscopy revealed dense intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) at the cervical isthmus, lateral uterine walls and in front of both tubal ostia. Hysteroscopic adhesiolysis was performed using a Versapoint resectoscope restoring the normal cavity. Hyaluronic acid (HA) gel was injected as an adhesion prevention barrier. A 6-month follow-up diagnostic hysteroscopy revealed recurrence of dense IUAs. The patient was re-listed for a second operative hysteroscopy under ultrasound guidance three months later and the dense IUAs were resected ...

Diagnosis and management of uterine perforation with omental incarceration after dilation and curettage
A 36-year-old G3P2 with an incomplete miscarriage underwent dilation and curettage to evacuate the uterus. The patient had amenorrhea and mild pelvic pain for seven months postoperatively. When she re-presented, her pelvic exam was unremarkable, however a transvaginal ultrasound demonstrated discontinuity in the uterine serosa with a hyperechoic mass protruding from the peritoneal cavity into the myometrium (Fig. 1). This suggested an incarcerated pelvic organ, likely due to uterine perforation at the time of D&C, with further consideration of Asherman's syndrome given the patient's amenorrhea.
