Design: Video presentation
Setting: Fertility Center - Teaching Hospital
Patients or Participants: One patient who underwent HSG and hysteroscopy.
Interventions: HSG and hysteroscopy.
Measurements and Main Results: The video demonstrates that if HSG findings show the balloon of the disposable HSG catheter touching both the uterine fundus and the internal cervical os, a short distance between these points should be suspected. In addition, the video illustrates that a diagnostic hysteroscopy can determine the etiology of such observation for example PSU. The video also demonstrates a technique of septoplasty using hysteroscopic scissors.
Conclusion: This video suggests that the findings of the disposable HSG catheter balloon touching both the uterine fundus and internal cervical os may indicate that the patient may have PSU, and therefore, a diagnostic hysteroscopy should be performed.
