[The importance of echography and hysteroscopy in the diagnosis and basis of a rational therapy for intrauterine pathology after labor].

Echography with hysteroscopy has been employed in 40 mothers with a complicated postpartum period. Ultrasound diagnosis of intrauterine disease is technically simple, noninvasive and efficient in measurement of the uterus and identification of abnormal inclusions in the uterine cavity. Hysteroscopy allows characterization of the abnormal intrauterine inclusions and evaluation of the endometrium. In addition, hysteroscopy enables additional diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. This study resulted in a protocol of postpartum examination of patients using echographic and hysteroscopic diagnostic methods.
