摘要：
To evaluate the efficacy, compliance, and cost effectiveness of sonohysterosalpingography (HyCoSy) compared with hysteroscopy for uterine cavity evaluation and compared with RX-hysterosalpingography (RX-HSG) for tubal patency determination. Three hundred and eight infertile patients underwent HyCoSy, hysteroscopy, and RX-HSG. We compared sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV), discomfort level, and cost of all three procedures. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were higher for HyCoSy than for hysteroscopy but the differences were not significant. HyCoSy also has the same accuracy as RX-HSG. Pain perception and cost were higher for RX-HSG and hysteroscopy than for HyCoSy. HyCoSy can be regarded as a procedure for initial evaluation of the uterine cavity and of tubal patency in infertile patients.
