Abstract
Although diagnostic hysteroscopy is superior to TVUS in the assessment of polyps, it contributes little to TVUS when myomas and endometrial hyperplasia are suspected. Therefore, it should not be used routinely as an interface between TVUS and operative hysteroscopy when such findings such are suspected. Furthermore, in premenopausal patients with abnormal uterine bleeding between diagnostic and operative procedures and when small (<15 mm) polyps are suspected, it might be worthwhile to repeat a diagnostic procedure before operative hysteroscopy.
