[Procedures in the pregnant and non-pregnant uterus under sonographic control (author's transl)].
Several procedures during pregnancy under ultra-sonographic control are described. Amniocentesis and puncture of the fetus may be done accurately without too much problems when a multi-element ultra-sound scanner is used for sonographic control. The principle of manipulation with ultra-sonographic control may be used for curettage. Instruments within the uterus may be localized and their movements can be submitted to continual visual control. A curettage under sonographic control may reduce the risk of the curettage in cases of uterine anomalies, anomalies of the position or unusually soft uteri.
