Hysteroscopy technique for diagnosis and minimally-invasive surgery
Hysteroscopy is a procedure which allows doctors to look into the internal part of various female reproductive organs like Uterus and Cervix, without having to make incisions on skin. With the help of this procedure, it becomes possible to physically detect many existing structural abnormalities of the uterus and cervix.
When accompanied by surgery, Hysteroscopy can also be used to treat various conditions like Polyps, Fibroids and several endometrial defects. Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure which enables precise diagnosis and easy treatment of a number of uterine factor infertility conditions with minimum risks and discomfort of the patient.
At AFIC, we integrate efficient techniques and advanced technology in the treatment procedure in every step of the way. To make the process more patient-friendly, our doctors adhere to safe and painless techniques, as far as possible.

The procedure uses a device called Hysteroscope, which is carefully inserted into the vagina to reach the uterus up inside, passing through the cervix. The hysteroscope is a thin flexible tube similar to a catheter, which has a video camera attached at the end. The device also has a narrow duct through which liquid and gas can be pumped.
At the initial step of hysteroscopy, gas is pumped into the uterus to inflate the uterus so that its surroundings can be clearly visible. The camera projects live footage to a monitor screen on which the doctors can see the internal chamber of the uterus. In most cases, medicines are prescribed to the patient beforehand to lighten the cervical mucus improving mobility of the hysteroscope.
Hysteroscopy also allows doctors to conduct minor surgeries on the internal lining of the uterus. To conduct an operation, small instruments are attached on the head of the hysteroscope. Miscellaneous instruments can be installed to perform a series of operations (such as incise, excise, dissect, resect) on endometrial tissues and remove fibroids, polyps and blockages.
As a diagnostic procedure, hysteroscopy can not only be used to detect intrauterine conditions, but it is also used to verify and confirm the presence of uterine factor infertility conditions already diagnosed by other methods such as blood test, USG or X-Ray.
