Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects between dilation and curettage (D&C) and hysteroscopic electroresection (HE) in the management of endometrial polyps. Methods Entered into the study there were 86 patients with endometrial polyps, 32 of them were treated by D&C (Group D&C) and 54 by HE (Group HE). The operation time, pre- and post- operative complications, and recurrence of 2 groups were compared. Results Of the Group D&C and Group HE, the operation time were (8.5?4.2) min and (9.0?3.1) min, without statistically significant differences (t=0.632, P=0.529), while the recurrence numbers and recurrence time of the 2 groups were 9 (36.0%) and 3 (7.5%) cases, (5.3?3.5) months and (11.2?4.8) months, respectively, with significant differences (?2=6.516, P= 0.011; t=6.058, P=0.000). Conclusions Compared with D&C, HE is characterized by lower recurrence rate and longer recurrence time.
