Abstract

GONCALVES RODRIGUEZ, José Luis et al. Vaginohysteroscopy, diagnosis and treatment of endometrial pathologies in officeVaginohysteroscopy, diagnosis and treatment of endometrial pathologies in office. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2021, vol.67, n.1, 00005. ISSN 2304-5132.  http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v67i2303.

In recent years there have been important technological advances, many applied to the medical field, allowing the evolution of numerous procedures. An example is hysteroscopy, where the miniaturization of its instruments and the improvement in the resolution of the images have allowed its evolution from an exclusive procedure in the operating room to use in the office. Vaginohysteroscopy allows the diagnosis of most endometrial pathologies without anesthesia, speculum, clamping or dilation of the cervix. It presents a series of advantages such as good tolerance by the patient, lower costs, less waiting time to resolve the pathologies and shorter work rest, making this procedure the standard for the diagnosis and treatment of endometrial and endocervical pathologies.

Keywords : Hysteroscopy; infertility; vaginohysteroscopy; office hysteroscopy.
