Popis: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Metzenbaum scissors in the transcervical incision of a complete septate uterus.Eight patients with a complete septate uterus were identified and recruited. The age range was 24 to 39 years old. After diagnosis by hysteroscopy, the transcervical incision was performed by Metzenbaum scissors and followed by hysteroscopic incision of corporal portion. The associated diseases were treated using laparoscopy.All patients were successfully treated and the operation duration was 5 - 10 minutes. The postoperative period was uneventful and there was no perforation, pelvic organ damage or water intoxication. Three months later, hysteroscopy revealed no uterine scarring or adhesion. And the shape of uterine cavity was normal.Using Metzenbaum scissors for transcervical incision of cervical portion of complete septate uterus, followed by hysteroscopic incision of corporal portion, is convenient, fast and safe. This approach has no effect upon the growth of endometrium.
