Comparing the Efficacy of Two Methods in the Prevention of Adhesion Reformation After Hysteroscopic Adhesiolysis

Not Applicable
Conditions
Intrauterine Adhesion
Interventions
Device: disposable balloon uterine stent
Procedure: dried biological amnion graft
Registration Number
NCT03346317
Lead Sponsor
Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital
Brief Summary

Asherman's syndrome is characterized by the presence of intrauterine adhesions (IUA) as well as symptoms such as amenorrhea, hypomenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. The gold standard for the treatment of intrauterine adhesions is hysteroscopic intrauterine adhesions. The recurrence of intrauterine adhesions is a major challenge in clinical practice. It has been reported that dried biological aminion graft was used to prevent adhesion after the operation of intrauterine adhesions. Estrogen is also used for postoperative prevention of intrauterine adhesions. Intrauterine balloon can reduce the recurrence of adhesions after operation. Does the combination of balloon with amniotic products or estrogen can improve clinical outcomes? Therefore, this study was conducted.
