Cervicoscopy

Cervical diseases are very serious for women. Clinically, some cervical diseases can endanger people's lives. Therefore, when unusual symptoms occur, timely examination and diagnosis must be carried out. Some cervical diseases do not have obvious early symptoms, so regular physical examinations are very important. Cervicoscopy is also a common examination item. So how is the cervicoscopy performed?

1. Process

Dilate the cervix to the required size, insert the hysteroscope into the internal cervical os along the uterine cavity, and at the same time inject 5% glucose solution into the uterine cavity. Rinse it clean, and then drip glucose solution into the uterine cavity to dilate the uterus. After the uterine cavity is fully dilated, the hysteroscope can be used to observe the morphology and endometrium of the cavity. The hysteroscope can be rotated to check various parts of the uterine cavity in sequence, and finally the cervical canal can be checked before slowly withdrawing the cervix. A glucose drip must be maintained during the examination. Tissue biopsy, foreign body removal, and other operations can be performed through the operating channel of the laparoscope.

2. Inspection Purpose

Hysteroscopy in women is most often used to check for abnormal uterine bleeding, such as irregular vaginal bleeding. During a gynecological examination, if bleeding from the uterine cavity is found but the cause cannot be found, a hysteroscopy can be performed. A hysteroscopy can also be performed when uterine adhesions or deformities are suspected. If an ultrasound examination reveals abnormal echoes in the uterine cavity, such as low echoes, it is suspected to be a polyp in the uterine cavity and a hysteroscopy can be performed to confirm the diagnosis. For some women, when the ring is found to be displaced and cannot be removed, a hysteroscopy can be performed to help locate the cavity. Some women experience unexplained infertility and can also undergo a hysteroscopy to find out if there are any abnormalities in the uterine cavity that may lead to infertility. If a woman has recurrent miscarriages, a hysteroscopy can be performed to rule out intrauterine factors as the cause of the recurrent miscarriages.

3. Others

Cervicoscopy mainly utilizes a microscope that magnifies the epidermal tissue of the cervix or genitals, combined with a light source and filters, to clearly examine the cervix and genitals, allowing the doctor to observe changes in the cervical epithelium and blood vessels to diagnose whether there are abnormal birth lesions and determine the severity of the lesions. If necessary, a biopsy through a colposcopy can provide the most accurate diagnosis as a basis for treatment. Perform positioning biopsy at suspicious areas to improve the diagnosis rate of cervical disease and genital lesions.
