Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to improve the classification of intrauterine adhesion (IUA) using three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (3D-TVUS) and deep learning, focusing on distinguishing IUA from non-IUA images to prevent unnecessary surgeries.
  • A total of 4,401 patients were evaluated, utilizing four different convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures (VGG16, InceptionV3, ResNet50, ResNet101) to classify the ultrasound images; these were trained and tested using TensorFlow and PyTorch.
  • The results indicated that the InceptionV3 model performed best with high metrics in sensitivity (94.2%), precision (99.4%), F1-score (96.8%),

Objective: The pregnancy patterns and other factors of live birth for patients with intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) were identified by analyzing the clinical features of pre-, intra-, and post-hysteroscopic adhesiolysis (HA).

Design: A total of 742 patients with IUAs who wanted to become pregnant underwent HA from January 2017 to May 2018 at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The patient follow-up period was 2 years post-HA.

Article Synopsis
  • Hysteroscopic adhesiolysis (HA) is a primary treatment for intrauterine adhesions (IUA), and this study explores the impact of pre-operative 3D transvaginal ultrasound (3D-TVUS) on surgical outcomes compared to traditional methods.
  • The study included 362 patients diagnosed with moderate to severe IUA, who were split into two groups: one that underwent 3D-TVUS evaluation before HA and a control group that did not.
  • Results showed that the group receiving 3D-TVUS had a significantly higher surgical success rate and improved postoperative outcomes, particularly in the visibility of the tubal ostia and AFS score reduction.

Background: Cervical insufficiency (CI) with concomitant intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) is a common clinical phenomenon among CI patients. But there are neither published reports regarding the difference in diagnosis and treatment of such patients compared to those with CI only, nor any report about their prognosis. This study aimed to preliminary the alteration in diagnostic and curative aspects of these patients, so as to provide a certain reference for the clinical management of such conditions.

Background: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) can be dissected using hysteroscopic scissors (cold scissors) or other methods, but there is no consensus on which hysteroscopic method is preferable. There is also no consensus on the method of how to deal with the scar tissue on the surface of the intrauterine cavity.

Methods: From January 2016 to October 2017, 179 patients who had HA met the enrollment criteria (see the text below), and their data were analyzed retrospectively.
