Uterine Rupture After Hysteroscopic Septum Resection

April 28, 2021 updated by: Antonio Simone Laganà, Università degli Studi dell'Insubria

Uterine Rupture in Pregnancy After Hysteroscopic Septum Resection: a Twenty-year Retrospective Analysis

To date, several studies have already confirmed a positive effect of hysteroscopic metroplasty on reproductive outcomes in primary infertile women affected by uterine septum, the most common uterine malformation. Nevertheless, very few data are available about the risk of uterine rupture in subsequent pregnancies after hysteroscopic septum resection (HSR). In order to shed about this element, we will retrospectively review the cases of uterine rupture in our setting in the last twenty years, identify which of them had previously undergone HSR, and evaluate the main clinical characteristics for each case.
