Description

Hysteroscopy and Female Infertility: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches in Clinical Practice addresses the growing global challenge of infertility by focusing on the critical role of hysteroscopy in diagnosing and managing uterine factors that impair female fertility. This reference fills a significant gap by providing an up-to-date, practical guide integrating recent advances in hysteroscopic technology, including AI-assisted diagnostics, to improve reproductive outcomes. The content is structured around pathology-based modules reflecting the clinical workflow of infertility assessment. Chapters cover a broad spectrum of uterine abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, adhesions, Müllerian anomalies, endometritis, adenomyosis, and isthmocele, combining detailed diagnostic criteria, operative techniques, and evidence on reproductive outcomes. The inclusion of ultrasound correlations, decision-making algorithms, and QR-linked high-definition surgical videos enhances usability for both learning and clinical application. Hysteroscopy and Female Infertility equips gynecologists, reproductive endocrinologists, and fertility specialists with a comprehensive, evidence-based resource designed to improve diagnostic precision and therapeutic efficacy. By integrating cutting-edge technologies and multidisciplinary perspectives, this reference supports clinicians in optimizing fertility care, shortening learning curves, and ultimately helping more couples achieve successful pregnancies.
