Hysteroscopic resection of an intrauterine septum may benefit patients
suffering from infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss. A partial or
complete uterine septum can be easily resected using a Nd-YAG laser. If
present, the vaginal septum may also be removed during the same procedure.
The reproductive outcome of women treated by operative hysteroscopy for an
intrauterine septum is reviewed. To avoid pregnancy in a non-communicating
rudimentary horn, the removal of the horn and the homolateral tube may be
performed by either bipolar coagulation or a CO2 laser.
