Title: An invisible stenotic cervix. Author: Walid MS, Heaton RL. Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 2011 Mar; 283 Suppl 1():121-2. PubMed ID: 21221980. Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Conization of the uterine cervix is a common gynecological procedure that sometimes causes cervical stenosis which creates difficulties for future gynecological procedures. MATERIAL: We present a very unusual case where strenuous effort was needed to obtain safe access to the endocervical canal and endometrial cavity. METHOD: A single case report. CONCLUSION: In patients with stenotic invisible cervical os and no palpable cervix, it may be necessary to examine the patient under general anesthesia because surgical intervention may be necessary to access the cervical canal.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
