| During a hysteroscopy, the patient will probably be given a local anesthetic. |
| A hysteroscopy is an examination of the inside of the womb using a telescope called a hysteroscope. |
| In case of infertility, a second-look hysteroscopy on an outpatient basis may be indicated two months after the operation. |
| The surgical treatments include dilatation and curettage, selective UAE, operative hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, and laparotomy. |
| Hysterosonography, hysteroscopy or MRI may be prescribed when the ultrasound results are difficult to interpret, when there is infertility or when a doubt persists as to the nature of the tumour. |
| Thus, some of the complications of hysteroscopy carry significant morbidity and possible mortality. |
