Hystéroscopie opératoire pour fibrome : morcellement versus résection à l’anse bipolaire

Abstract

To evaluate the results associated with hysteroscopic morcellation for submucous myomas removal, and to compare with those observed associated with bipolar loop resection. A retrospective comparative study was conducted in two universitary centers from January 2012 to December 2013. A total of 83 patients, who presented with submucous myomas type 0,1 and 2, were included. The number of myomas type 0,1 was 36 (71 %) and 15 (29 %) myomas type 2 in morcellation group versus 44 (59 %) myomas type 0,1 and 31 (41 %) type 2 in electrosurgical resection group (P=0.17). Hysteroscopic morcellation or electrosurgical resection with bipolar loop for removal submucous myomas were performed. Thirty-four patients underwent hysteroscopic morcellation using MyoSure(®), and 49 had hysteroscopic resection using Versapoint-24F(®) bipolar loop. The mean operative duration was 30minutes in morcellation group, compared to 31minutes in bipolar resection group (P=0.98). Complete myoma removal was achieved in 22 (64 %) patients in morcellation group, and in 34 (69 %) in bipolar resection group (P=0.65). There were no difference in the occuring of adverse events between the two. The prevalence of postoperative intra-uterine adherence was 10 % in morcellation group and 13.8 % in bipolar resection group (P=0.69). In the current short comparative series, hysteroscopic morcellation and bipolar loop resection were associated with comparable results for removal of submucous myomas.
