Causes of Isthmocele

Several factors contribute to the development of isthmocele, including:

  • Cesarean Section Scar Defect: Improper healing of the uterine incision.
  • Thin Uterine Wall: A weakened lower uterine segment increases the risk.
  • Multiple C-Sections: Repeated surgeries can exacerbate the condition.
  • Inadequate Postoperative Healing: Poor wound healing can lead to scar formation.

For expert assessment, visit Dr. Deepali Luthra, an expert doctor, at Chawla Nursing Home and Maternity Hospital to evaluate and manage isthmocele effectively.

Symptoms of Isthmocele

Many women with isthmocele experience varying symptoms, including:

  • Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Prolonged or heavy menstrual periods.
  • Pelvic Pain: Persistent discomfort in the lower abdomen.
  • Infertility: Difficulty conceiving due to fluid accumulation in the scar defect.
  • Postmenstrual Spotting: Retained menstrual blood in the pouch can lead to spotting.

If you are experiencing these symptoms, schedule a consultation with the BEST GYNAE SURGEON, Dr. Deepali Luthra, at Chawla Nursing Home and Maternity Hospital for a thorough evaluation.

Diagnosis of Isthmocele

A comprehensive diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. Diagnostic methods include:

  • Transvaginal Ultrasound: The most common imaging technique to identify the defect.
  • Sonohysterography: Uses saline infusion to provide a clearer view of the uterine defect.
  • MRI: Offers detailed imaging for complex cases.
  • Hysteroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure that allows direct visualization.

At Chawla Nursing Home and Maternity Hospital, Dr. Deepali Luthra, an expert doctor, uses advanced diagnostic tools to confirm the presence of isthmocele and determine the best treatment approach.


Treatment Options for Isthmocele

The choice of treatment depends on symptom severity and reproductive plans. Available options include:

  • Medical Management: Hormonal therapy to control bleeding and manage symptoms.
  • Hysteroscopic Repair: A minimally invasive procedure to excise and repair the defect.
  • Laparoscopic Surgery: Used in severe cases to reconstruct the uterine wall.
  • Cesarean Scar Revision: For patients planning future pregnancies, surgical correction improves uterine integrity.

For personalized treatment, consult Dr. Deepali Luthra, the BEST GYNAE SURGEON, at Chawla Nursing Home and Maternity Hospital, where expert care is available.
