Surgical treatment includes endometrialablation of the first and second-generation, and hysterectomy.
2
Patient(s): Women with heavy menstrual bleeding scheduled for an office endometrialablation.
3
Background: To compare outcomes of endometrialablation with monopolar versus bipolar resection on uterine bleeding and psychophysical wellbeing.
4
The analysis of Short Form-36 showed an improvement of all assessed items after the endometrialablation without significant difference.
5
Conclusion: The efficacy and safety of endometrialablation are comparable in women with or without a history of cesarean delivery.
6
Design: Prospective cohort of 59 women awaiting endometrialablation (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).
7
Patients: Seven-hundred eleven women underwent nonresectoscopic endometrialablation at our institution between January 1998 and December 2005.
8
Today the majority of women with DUB are successfully treated with hormonal therapy; patients unresponsive to hormonal therapy may require endometrialablation or hysterectomy.
9
Study objective: To evaluate the effect of endometrialablation on 6 premenstrual symptoms for up to 1 year after treatment.
10
Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of global endometrialablation in women with a history of cesarean delivery.
11
Study design: We performed a historical cohort study of patients who underwent endometrialablation for menorrhagia between 1998 and 2005.
12
The verdict followed a damages trial in Delaware focused on determining reasonable compensation for Minerva's infringement of two Hologic patents relating to endometrialablation devices.
13
Women with and without a history of cesarean delivery had comparable rates for 5 year cumulative endometrialablation failure, amenorrhea, treatment failure, and operative complications.
14
Conclusion: Women reported significant improvement for the 6 premenstrual symptoms for up to 1 year following an endometrialablation for heavy menstrual bleeding.

Endometrialablation with bipolar electrode loop is safer but more expansive than monopolar electrode loop.
