Hysteroscopy.

Hysteroscopy is a "new" endoscopic approach for the gynecologist. The development and refinement of the sophisticated fiberoptic light system can illuminate the darkness of the uterine cavity. Polyps can be differentiated from submucous myomas; intrauterine adhesions can be accurately "mapped" and classified, with synechiae lysed under direct vision; endometrial carcinoma can be diagnosed and possibly staged; embedded intrauterine devices can be identified and dislodged; the wastebasket diagnosis of "dysfunctional uterine bleeding" can be cleaned up; submucosal myomas and uterine septa can be resected; and successful transuterine sterilization may become a reality. If culdoscopy is menopausal and laparoscopy in its reproductive years, hysteroscopy is certainly in its infancy.
