[Ultrasonography as a method to determine the correct implantation of intratubaric devices].

Background: Essure procedure consists in the placement of two coils in the intramural segment of Fallopian tubes by hysteroscopic causing a fibrosis reaction that unleashes a physiological obstruction. Hysterosalpingography, until today, is the gold standard checking the success of this method of sterilization.

Objective: Determining if a scan at three months postimplantation is sufficient to confirm the correct positioning of the device.

[Diagnostic hysteroscopy indications and results in Complexo Hospitalario Universitario De Ourense].

Background: Diagnostic hysteroscopy is an endoscopic technique that allows the evaluation of the endocervical canal and uterine cavity.

Objective: To evaluate indications, complications and referral to operative hysteroscopy. To analyze the correlation between sonographic display, hysteroscopy findings and histological diagnosis.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) E6/E7 mRNA as a triage test after detection of HPV 16 and HPV 18 DNA.

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA detection provides high sensitivity but low specificity for moderate-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or worse histological identification. A prospective study evaluated mRNA testing efficacy for predicting this histological diagnosis in case of HPV 16 and/or 18 DNA detection. A total of 165 endocervical samples harboring HPV 16 and/or 18 DNA were tested with NucliSENS-EasyQ® HPV E6/E7-mRNA-assay (Biomerieux, Marcy l´Etoile, France).
