| Abstract | ||
| To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of saline infusion sonography (SIS) compared with hysteroscopy in patient presented with abnormal uterine bleeding. Prospective ,comparative study. This study carried in Al Yarmouk Teaching Hospital /Baghdad from the period Jan 2002 to Dec. 2002 on 50 women referred to the outpatients clinic for abnormal uterine bleeding all were underwent saline infusion sonography followed by hysteroscopy ,and the results was compared with endometrial biopsy. Sensitivity and specificity of each test were assessed. SIS was more sensitive (100% versus 88.9%) and specific (96.9% versus 94.4%) than hysteroscopy in detecting causes of uterine bleeding. SIS is good as hysteroscopy in detecting local cause of abnormal uterine bleeding , and this can replace diagnostic hysteroscopy in many patients with abnormal uterine bleeding, it is safe procedure, rarely associated with infection or complications. | ||
