Abstract
Exaggerated placental site (EPS) is a benign lesion that can occur in association with term pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, intrauterine fetal death or miscarriage. The characteristics of EPS are described in several case reports and have been reported after major surgery such as hysterectomy. We describe the hysteroscopic characteristic of EPS associated with a spontaneous miscarriage. Hysteroscopic inspection of the uterine cavity revealed copious tissue with increased vascularization without signs of invasion. No cleavage was visualized between material and myometrium could be established during the resection procedure. 40 days after hysteroscopy the patient became pregnant. The pregnancy proceeded without complications and during the cesarean section no residual placenta-related abnormal site appearance was noted on inspection of the uterine wall. The hysteroscopic treatment could be considered feasible to preserve future fertility in young women in cases of suspect non-malignant trophoblastic disease.
