Abstract

ObjectiveThe treatment of endometrial polyps is based on hysteroscopic resection. The aim of the current study was to compare the results associated with hysteroscopic morcellation and those observed with bipolar loop resection. Patients and methodsA single-center observational retrospective comparative study was performed, including 25 patients who underwent hysteroscopic resection of endometrial polyps from January 2012 to December 2013. The mean size of polyp was 9.2mm in the group compared to 12.5mm in the resection group loop (P=0.06). ResultsTwelve patients underwent resection of the polyp morcellation with MyoSure® and 13 with bipolar resection loop Versapoint® 24F. The mean operative time was 16minutes in morcellation group and 17minutes in the bipolar resection group (P=0.76). Complete removal was achieved in 100% of cases in morcellation group and in bipolar loop resection. Regarding intraoperative and postoperative complications, no complication was observed in the two groups. Discussion and ConclusionResults associated with hysteroscopic morcellation and bipolar loop resection seen to be comparable.
