A successful break-up

Abstract

A 24-year-old woman had a 3-year history of primary infertility and a 1-year history of menorrhagia. Hysteroscopic evaluation revealed a sessile polyp arising from the posterior uterine cavity wall (Figures 1 and 2). The polyp was bright-red compared with the relatively pale endometrium surrounding it. Prominent white glandular orifices speckled its surface. Closer visualization disclosed that each gland opening was surrounded by well-defined regions of intense hyperemia (Figure 3). An especially detailed picture of the hyperemic gland openings was provided when a Hamou Micro-Hysteroscope II was used in the contact mode, providing a magnification at source of 80x (Figure 4). 1 Kumar A.
