Asherman Syndrome in Mexican Women: Clinical Characteristics, Management, and Outcomes at a Tertiary Hospital.

Background/Objective: Asherman syndrome is an acquired intrauterine adhesive disorder associated with menstrual abnormalities, infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and adverse reproductive outcomes. Data from Latin American tertiary referral centers remain limited. To characterize clinical history, classification, hysteroscopic management strategies, and anatomical and reproductive outcomes in a single cohort of Mexican women with Asherman syndrome. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included women identified through institutional electronic records between July 2016 and December 2023 with a diagnosis of Asherman syndrome and analyzable hysteroscopic records. Women were followed for twelve months. Recurrence was defined as hysteroscopic evidence of intrauterine adhesions during follow-up. Among women with follow-up hysteroscopy, two-sided Fisher's exact tests were used to calculate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: Fifty-four women were analyzed. A prior uterine procedure was documented in 44 women (81.5%), with sharp curettage in 35 (64.8%). The most common reasons for consultation were secondary infertility (29.6%), abnormal uterine bleeding (27.8%), primary infertility (20.4%), and recurrent pregnancy loss (13.0%). Disease severity was classified as mild in 30 women (55.6%), moderate in 11 (20.4%), and severe in 7 (13.0%). Hysteroscopic intervention was predominantly performed with cold knife adhesiolysis (83.3%). Twelve-month follow-up hysteroscopy was performed in 38 women (70.4%); recurrence was identified in 30 (55.6%). Among the 34 women with reproductive intent, 12 achieved a live birth, corresponding to a live birth rate of 35.3%. Conclusions: Prior uterine instrumentation, particularly sharp curettage, was the most frequent antecedent. Recurrence remained common despite surgical management, highlighting the need for standardized postoperative surveillance and preventive strategies.
