Hysteroscopy of the uterus. Hysteroscopic resection

HYSTEROSCOPY

Hysteroscopy of the uterus is a modern diagnostic procedure for detecting or subsequently treating diseases of the uterine cavity and cervical canal. The operation itself is a minimally invasive surgical intervention. How hysteroscopy is performed: a hysteroscope with a miniature video camera is inserted into the uterine cavity through the vagina, and the doctor examines the uterus internally using this device and lighting.

HYSTEROSCOPIC RESECTION

Hysteroscopic resection is a minimally invasive endoscopic surgery that allows the following manipulations under visual control:

• removal of submucous (submucosal) uterine fibroid nodes;
• treatment of hyperplastic processes of the endometrium;
• division of adhesions in the uterine cavity;
• removal of endometrial polyps;
• removal of endometriosis foci.

Video control during the operation allows the doctor to perform the surgery with maximum precision, quickly and, most importantly, gently!
