Comparing two surgical methods for removing uterine septum

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of two surgical techniques for resecting a uterine septum: one using scissors without electrosurgery and the other utilizing bipolar electrosurgery. Both procedures are performed under hysteroscopy, where a camera is inserted into the uterus, and the septum is removed. The study will evaluate various factors including operative time, complication rates, and the absorption of saline fluid during the procedure. Follow-up assessments will be conducted to check for any remaining septum after four weeks.
