Transvaginal sonohysterography was performed on 40 consecutive patients
with infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss and uterine abnormalities on
hysterosalpingography. The findings were correlated with the
hysterosalpingogram and subsequent diagnostic and/or operative
hysteroscopy. Hysterosalpingography was incorrect in nine cases.
Sonohysterography was more accurate than hysterosalpingography and provided
more information about uterine abnormalities. Sonohysterography was in
complete agreement with hysteroscopy. Diagnostic hysteroscopy can therefore
be avoided if the sonohysterogram is normal. Sonohysterography also
provides additional information on the relative proportion of the
intracavitary and intramyometrial components of submucus myomas, as well as
extracavitary myomas and the adnexae. This may help in planning the
surgical procedure.
