Office hysteroscopy.

Diagnostic, panoramic hysteroscopy can be performed in an office setting with small discomfort to the patient. The procedure enables the physician to search for organic intrauterine abnormalities and to select the proper form of therapy based on the observations. Often no pathology is seen and further surgical interventions are not needed. This operation currently represents the state of the art for investigation of the endometrial cavity. In the future it will become the standard of care as the first step for evaluation of causes of abnormal uterine bleeding in selected patients.
