      Abstract

      In 49 patients with endometrial carcinoma hysterographic study was performed. This finding was correlated with fractional curettage, hysteroscopy and surgery. The best correlation was noted between hysterography and hysteroscopy. The flow into the tubes or abdominal cavity using low pressure was found in 20% of the cases. In our opinion hysterography is a useful aid when examining the uterine cavity and cervical canal, and, thus, important when planning treatment and determining clinical stage.
