Abstract:
Objective To introduce the procedures, preliminary experience, and advantages of operation using combination of hysteroscopy and laparoscopy.Methods Sixty-five women underwent transcervical resection of endometrium (11), myoma (38), polyp (2), septa (9), adhesion (1) or foreign body (4). All had the indications for simultaneous laparoscopic monitoring and operation. They were first diagnosed laparoscopically to decide the type of laparoscopic operation. Then they were treated hysteroscopically and finally received laparoscopic operation. Results Laparoscopic examinations confirmed the original diagnoses, revealed the causes of pelvic pain in 8 patients, and detected ovarian cyst, endometriosis, and pelvic adhesion in 5. Two cases of uterine perforation were found by laparoscopic monitoring. Thirty laparoscopic operations included removal or puncture of ovarian cyst, lysis of adhesion, coagulation of endometriosis, Rubin's test, and partial salpingectomy. The postoperative course was smooth and the operative result was satisfactory. Conclusions Operations using combination of hysteroscopy and laparoscopy are safe and effective. They also reduce the pain, and save the time and money of patients. Laparoscopic monitoring may detect uterine perforation in time.
