title: [Value of ambulatory diagnostic hysteroscopy. A review of a series of 292 cases].
abstract: This is a retrospective study including 292 ambulatory diagnostic hystéroscopies realised during a period of 1 year and a half. The mid age of our patients is 44 years. The main indications are haemorrhage, infertility and abnormal ultrasound findings. The exams are carried out under analgesia. Its sensibility is good concerning the endométrial pathology. As a matter of fact, it equals 100% for adénocarcinomas, it varies from 56.5 to 77.3% for hyperplasia, 100% for endométrial polyps and from 88 to 90% for endométrial atrophy. In contrast, it is worse for the myométrial pathology such as adénomyose and sub mucosal myomas. Besides its sensibility, the tolerance of this exam allows its ambulatory realisation permitting a considerable economy.
