| Popis: | We investigated the feasibility and acceptability of office hysteroscopic polypectomy using a new continuous-flow operative 16 Fr Gubbini’s mini-resectoscope. This is a prospective clinical study (Canadian Task Force classification III). The office hysteroscopic polypectomy was performed with a mini-resectoscope without analgesia or anesthesia. We evaluated the polyp size and the number, the effectiveness of resection, the operating time, the pelvic pain and complications. The office hysteroscopic polypectomy was successfully performed in all 33 patients. The polyps ranged in size from 5 to 50 mm with a mean of 18.15 ± 11.45 mm. We analyzed the operating time with a mean of 11.45 ± 4.71 min: 29 procedures took less than 15 min from the start of vaginoscopy to the end of surgery. Overall mean visual analog scale (VAS) calculated was 2.48 ± 1.37 (range 0–6). The correlation between the size of the polyps and operating time was statistically significant (p |
