Comparison of transvaginal sonography, saline infusion sonography and hysteroscopy in the evaluation of uterine cavity pathologies

Abstract: In premenopausal patients, SIS and hysteroscopy are equally accurate in the diagnosis of endometrial polyps and submucous fibroids. Hysteroscopy is the most accurate test for polypoid lesions in the postmenopausal group. Performing TVS, SIS and D&C could reduce the number of diagnostic hysteroscopies performed for the evaluation of uterine cavity abnormalities by 71.5% in premenopausal patients. However, this rate decreases to 40% in the postmenopausal group.

This fact was decisive for exclusion of 3D-SCSH studies (Table S2).…”

“…Quality assessment showed one study with a low risk of bias for all four items 18 , two studies with a high risk of bias for two of the items (description of index test and reference standard) 14,15 , while four studies had an unclear risk of bias for the description of flow and timing [14][15][16][17] . Three studies had low risk for the three items of applicability [16][17][18] .…”
