[Dynamic ultrasonic hysteroscopy].
An attempt was made to establish Dynamic Echohysteroscopy (DEHS) diagnostic criteria for the study of female genital apparatus, as recently proposed. DEHS consists of a pelvic ultrasonography during and following an injection of physiological solution in the uterine cavity. Since this technique does not use X-rays, it has been proven useful to study female infertility. The authors have studied the normal and pathological aspects of 33 patients who underwent both DEHS and hysterosalpingography (HSG) (comparison diagnostic test). The results lead to the following conclusions: 1) DEHS can be considered a useful alternative to HSG, in the evaluation of uterine pathology; 2) in the evaluation of tubal pathology, DEHS has fewer diagnostic possibilities than HSG. Nevertheless, DEHS indirectly allows the patency of at least one tube.
