Hysteroscopic management of endometrial polyps and submucous leiomyomas in women using a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system
Original language description
Introduction: This study was designed to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of hysteroscopy in the management of symptoms related to endometrial polyps and submucous leiomyomas in women using a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS). Material and methods: Twenty-three LNG-IUS users presenting with endometrial polyps and/or submucous leiomyomas and irregular uterine bleeding were recruited for hysteroscopic examination and surgery. Intrauterine pathology was investigated and treated by hysteroscopic resection with the LNG-IUS in situ, and the effect of the procedure on symptoms was evaluated after three to six months. Results: Intrauterine pathology was successfully resected by hysteroscopy in 23 (100.0%) out of 23 cases. Following hysteroscopy, 18 (78.3%) women reported amenorrhea, one (4.3%) regular spotting, three (13.0%) irregular spotting and one (4.3%) patient resumed normal menstrual cycle. We conclude that 19 (82.6%) patients were postoperatively asymptomatic. All procedures were uncomplicated and 4 (17.4%) were carried out without general anesthesia as office procedures. Conclusion: Endometrial polyps and submucous leiomyomas can develop in LNG-IUS users, and this can cause irregular uterine bleeding. Hysteroscopic resection of these pathologies is a feasible method in the clinical management of symptoms.
