Abstract
The current traditional management of severe intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) is hysteroscopic adhesiolysis with application of either an intrauterine contraceptive device or a Foley catheter balloon with reported recurrence in up to 50% of cases. Recently, significant improvement with the use of amnion graft following hysteroscopic lysis of severe IUA was reported. In the present case, endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) were found within and on the surface of amniotic membrane two months after its grafting intrauterine which was confirmed with CD10 immunohistochemistry. Amniotic membrane graft after hysteroscopic lysis of severe IUA, might act as a source of stem cells for endometrial regeneration; a role that will be of great value especially in severe IUAs. Further studies to confirm this finding are warranted.
