Sanfilippo: Apropos to your comment, is there a role for a
sonohysterography in this population?
Evaluation of intrauterine structural pathology by three-dimensional
sonohysterography using an extended imaging method.
If intracavitary pathology, such as submucosal fibroids or endometrial polyps, is suspected, additional imaging with saline infusion
sonohysterography (SIS) should be performed.
The patient had a 3D saline infusion
sonohysterography on day 12 of the cycle, which revealed a normal uterine cavity.
Sonohysterography versus hysteroscopy for diagnosing endouterine abnormalities in fertile women.
Sonohysterography is superior to transvaginal ultrasound (with a sensitivity of 80% vs.
Our experience shows that the first step in all bleeding cases was to evaluate the uterine cavity by ultrasound, but sometimes it was difficult to distinguish between placental tissue and blood clots, however ultrasonography combining Gray Scale-Color Doppler and
sonohysterography is the best predictor in women with a suspicion of RPOC.

Objective: To evaluate the importance of saline infusion Doppler
sonohysterography (SIS-D) in the assessment of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUSG)-suspected intrauterine mass lesions in women complaining about abnormal uterine bleeding with respect to hysteroscopy (H/S) and pathologic diagnosis.
