[Hysteroscopy versus hysterosalpingography in diagnosis of sterility and infertility].
In a prospective study of 68 infertile patients the findings of hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy have been compared. Hysterosalpingography showed in 3 cases false-negative results and in 10 cases false-positive results. Hysterosalpingography is especially limited for diagnostics of intrauterine adhesions. Hysteroscopy should be a necessary component of diagnostics of sterility, also in case of normal hysterosalpingographical findings.
