Study Objective: To determine the association of repeat polypectomy with patient and/or polyp characteristics, surgical setting, and type of hysteroscopic equipment.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study including all women who had undergone operative hysteroscopy for the removal of endometrial polyps between 1/2012-12/2022 in our division. Operative hysteroscopy with resection of endometrial polyps was performed using a bipolar loop resectoscope, miniaturized hysteroscopic instruments (bipolar needle, scissors, and graspers), or a tissue-removal device (from April 2021), with or without general anesthesia.

Study Objective: To investigate the feasibility of operative hysteroscopy by a hysteroscopic tissue removal system (HTRS) without anesthesia in women with endometrial polyps (EP) or retained products of conception (RPOC).
Design: Prospective observational cohort study.
Setting: University-affiliated Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Purpose: Women diagnosed with mid-trimester cervical insufficiency and dilatation are offered interventions to salvage and support the cervix, where the mainstay of therapy is emergency cervical cerclage. However, considering the significant morbidity associated with delivery in the extreme prematurity period, some women may opt for pregnancy termination. In addition, it is expected that elective cerclage in a subsequent pregnancy may yield better obstetrical results.
