Hysteroscopic Septum Resection
Overview
A septate uterus is an inborn uterine abnormality in which the uterus is divided into two cavities. Women who have a septate uterus are more likely to experience infertility, recurrent miscarriage, and premature birth. They become pregnant, but the septate uterus prevents the baby from growing, and miscarriage occurs in the early stages of pregnancy.
However, the surgical removal of the septate uterus will aid women in overcoming miscarriage and giving birth to their conceived child. The use of hysteroscopic septal resection in Dubai allows for a new type of treatment that does not require a laparotomy, resulting in a shorter hospital stay and faster recovery.
What is Hysteroscopic Septal Resection?
Hysteroscopy is a medical procedure in which the doctor looks inside the uterus and examines the cervix with a hysteroscope, a long and thin tube. This tube is passed through the vagina and cervical canal to inspect and diagnose the uterus. It aids in the treatment of certain gynaecological conditions, including uterine septum. The uterine septum can be removed using a minimally invasive technique called hysteroscopic septal resection.
Procedure for Hysteroscopic Septal Resection
One of the most effective methods for detecting uterine septum is Hysteroscopic Septal Resection in Dubai. Although a septate uterus does not cause infertility, it does increase the chances of miscarriage and other pregnancy complications. It may also contribute to the delayed natural conception of secondary infertility patients.
Women’s reproductive performance improves significantly after hysteroscopic septal resection. It is regarded as a safe and effective method of overcoming uterine septum. The procedure has no negative effects on the fertility factor.
What to expect post-treatment?

What other surgeries are conducted under Hysteroscopic Septal Resection?
Condition – Uterine Septum
Uterine septums are present at birth in all women. The congenital defect occurs when two small uteri normally fuse into one but fail to absorb the dividing interior wall. While a woman is a fetus in her own mother’s uterus, her uterus may develop some abnormalities. Aside from the possibility of infertility, a woman with a uterine septum will have no other symptoms.
Condition – Vaginal Septum
A vaginal septum is a band of tissue that divides your vagina into two parts. This abnormality develops in the reproductive tract during fetal development while the baby is developing in the mother’s womb.
Treatment – Uterine Septum Resection
Uterine Septum Resection – a minimally invasive procedure is commonly used to correct the issue of the uterine septum. Our hysteroscopy specialist, Dr. Pranjali Singh, performs an outpatient surgical procedure with no incisions and, thus, no visible scars. In this procedure, she dilates the cervix and inserts a long, thin camera into the uterus. To conclude this process of uterus septum removal surgery, she then feeds instruments through the camera to resect or cut the septum. After this, the extra wedge of unnecessary tissue is excised, resulting in a larger area for implantation.
Treatment – Vaginal Septum Resection
An advanced hysteroscopy procedure, Vaginal Septum Resection, is undertaken to deal with this condition. Resection is the surgical removal of something from the body. It refers to the removal of a septum, which is a tissue partition that forms as the foetus develops inside the mother’s womb.
