“…6 In our study, 3D TVS showed high SE (97.8%) and SP (100%) for the detection of uterine cavity anomalies. Clinically, many women presenting with fertility problems are found to have Asherman's syndrome during routine infertility work-up.…”

“…5 The frontal plan of the uterus also offers marked improvements for studying uterine malformations, especially in cases of infertility. 6 3D TVS is helpful in delineation of intracavitary adhesions and determination of their location that assists in surgical planning. 7 In addition, by 3D ultrasound more precise anatomical sections for exploring the endometrial cavity; the relations of myomata and their possible encroachment on the cavity, the diagnosis of endometrial polypi and the measurement of endometrial volume rather than thickness in cases of abnormal uterine bleeding.…”

“…14 This finding is corroborated by Raga et al in their study on uterine anomalies. 15 It is probably the safest anomaly as it has the least effect on reproduction and comes close to a normal pregnancy. Nevertheless, a few views maintain that this condition is associated with increased foetal loss and obstetrical complications.…”

“…[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Other applications of 3-dimensional sonography of the endometrium include endometrial volume measurements in patients with postmenopausal bleeding, assessment of intracavitary lesions, evaluation of endometrial receptivity during in vitro fertilization, localization of the maximal implantation point during sonographically guided embryo transfer, and use in association with extrauterine gestations. [18][19][20][21][22][23] Recently, 3-dimensional transvaginal sonography of the endometrium has assisted the diagnosis of interstitial and intramural pregnancies.…”

cervical pregnancy is an uncommon ectopic pregnancy that accounts for less than 1% of such gestations. 1 This condition is associated with an extremely high risk of massive hemorrhage and previously often required hysterectomy. 1 The current diagnostic modality of this potentially lifethreatening condition is transvaginal sonography, supported at times by magnetic resonance imaging. [2][3][4] The definitive diagnostic imaging feature of a cervical pregnancy is the location of a gestational sac in the cervix in the presence of a closed internal uterine cervical os. [2][3][4][5][6][7] We report the 3-dimensional transvaginal sonographic findings of a cervical pregnancy at 6 weeks' gestation.Received August 8, 2007, Case ReportA 34-year-old woman, gravida 3, para 0, came to the emergency department at State University of New York Downstate Medical Center with mild uterine hemorrhage. Her medical history was unremarkable. The patient had 2 previous spontaneous first-trimester miscarriages. Physical examination revealed a healthy individual. She was afebrile with a blood pressure of 120/78 mm Hg, a pulse of 84 beats per minute, and a respiratory rate of 20 breaths per minute. Her abdomen was soft and nontender, with no peritoneal signs elicited. Bimanual pelvic examination disclosed a soft, mildly enlarged uterus. Both adnexa were normal. The cervix was long and closed and appeared boggy on inspection.Laboratory test results revealed a hemoglobin level of 13.6 g/dL, a hematocrit value of 42%, a white blood cell count of 7.29 × 10 9 /L, and a platelet count of 255 × 10 9 /L.
