Overview
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) may be helpful in the diagnosis of the anatomic defects that can cause amenorrhea. Findings on a hysterosalpingography diagnostic of Asherman syndrome include multiple irregular linear (or lacunar) filling defects showing intrauterine adhesion, inability to distend the endometrial cavity, and totally non-filled uterine mostly in severe cases.
Other Imaging Findings
Hysterosalpingography
- The procedure is an abdominal X-ray imaging while contrast medium was injected into the uterine cavity through vagina and cervix.
- Hysterosalpingography (HSG) may be helpful in the diagnosis of the anatomic defects that can cause amenorrhea. Findings on a hysterosalpingography diagnostic of Asherman syndrome include:[1]
- Multiple irregular linear (or lacunar) filling defects showing intrauterine adhesion
- Inability to distend the endometrial cavity
- Totally non-filled uterine mostly in severe cases
