Hysteroscopy is the visual inspection of the interior of the uterine cavity through a small circular tube containing fibre optics. The hysteroscope is inserted into the uterus through the opening of cervix allowing a surgeon or gynecologist to view interior of uterus. Sometimes the procedure is simply for diagnostic purposes, and other times the procedure is used for treatment purposes, such as the removal of a tissue sample or removal of a polyp, or tumour. These days out-patient hysteroscopy is becoming increasingly popular with saline distension of the uterine cavity.
