In this study, the authors raise the question of the morbidity related to Asherman's syndrome and demonstrate that hysterectomy is the best method for diagnosis and treatment. In a group of 15 patients, secondary sterility and secondary amenorrhea were the main reasons for consultation, 11 patients underwent surgical hysteroscopy and the other fourteen received conventional treatment. The main etiological factors identified were curettage and cesarian section. A normal cavity was successfully reconstructed in 12 cases (80%) after between one and three treatments. Normal menstruation was restored in all patients. In the obstetric field, there were 7 pregnancies, resulting in 6 deliveries and one miscarriage. Hysteroscopy therefore constitutes a real step forward in the diagnosis and treatment of Asherman's syndrome; it may be possible to extend its advantage to all forms of endouterine neoformations.
