Summary

This prospective, multicenter, observational study evaluated the prevalence of intrauterine adhesions after laparoscopic or laparotomic myomectomy and investigated clinical and surgical factors associated with their occurrence. Consecutive women who underwent laparoscopic or laparotomic myomectomy were considered eligible and were approached for enrollment. Women who provided informed consent were included in the study. All included women underwent myomectomy and postoperative management according to routine clinical practice. All enrolled women underwent office diagnostic hysteroscopy three months after surgery to assess the presence of intrauterine adhesions. Clinical characteristics, surgical details of the myomectomy, and hysteroscopic findings were prospectively collected in an anonymized database.
