Inflammation Markers in Fluid Aspirate From a Scarred Uterine vs. a Normal Uterine Cavity

March 20, 2024 updated by: Chana Adler, Hadassah Medical Organization
A prospective study that will take place in the hydrosonography clinic, comparing patients with an intact uterus to those who had a caesarean section. Eligible patients will preform a transvaginal ultrasound for evaluation of presence of a niche. After fixation of the transcervical catheter, we will flush 2 ml sterile NaCl 0.9% into the uterine cavity and aspirate the fluid. After collecting all samples, the samples will be snap frozen and stored at -80o C, until they undergo an immunological analysis.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Inflammatory cell population
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
The wash samples are processed, supernatant discarded and RBCs removed. Cells are then washed with FACS buffer ,subjected to antibody staining and examined by flow cytometry. Antibodies include: CD45,UV,CD3,CD19,CD66B,CD88, CD89, CD14,CD16,CD314,HLA-DR in order to identify monocytes, dendritic cells, T cells, B cells, NK and Neutrophil populations
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
