Abstract:
:Outpatient hysteroscopy has shown good correlation of findings compared with inpatient hysteroscopy, but one limitation is pain and discomfort in some women, and vasovagal reaction. Various forms of local anaesthesia have been evaluated in the past year, with controversial results, and a narrow 3.5 mm sheath hysteroscope has been introduced. Transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy as an outpatient procedure has been further investigated.
