A new finding for determining the incision line in the treatment of the septate uterus: “Süha-Levent’s sign”

In the initial hysteroscopic examination, we noticed that there was a blue line along the septum on the midline of the endometrial cavity traversing between the two tubal ostia after the injection of methylene blue. Then, we used this blue line as a guide to determine the line of incision and we inc...

Summary:In the initial hysteroscopic examination, we noticed that there was a blue line along the septum on the midline of the endometrial cavity traversing between the two tubal ostia after the injection of methylene blue. Then, we used this blue line as a guide to determine the line of incision and we incised the septum just along it. We presented two of these cases with a new finding, which we named the "Süha-Levent sign". As a result, we believe that this finding might be used as a useful marker before incising the septate uterus.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
