Abstract:Objective: To investigate transvaginal color Doppler sonography for the application value of septate uterus. Methods: A total of 76 patients(symptomatic group 41 cases, control group 35 cases) with suspected uterine malformation were examined by TVS, then we compared the ultrasonic results with hysterography. Color Doppler examine septal vascularity, the result was compared between two groups. Results: The diagnostic result of hysterography and TVS shows that diagnostic accuracy of TVS is 97.37%. Patients with vascularized septa had significantly higher prevalence of pregnancy failure than those with avascularized septa(P<0.05). Conclusions: TVS is highly valuable in diagnosing septate uterus, color Doppler technology has a potential to predict likelihood of pregnancy failure in patients with sepate uterus.
