Patients:
Fifty-five PCOS and 52 male infertility patients as control group performed ART were included in the study. Patients were retrospectively screened for HSG. HSG images were numerated for each patient. The numbering of HSG images of patients and filing was done by an independent person blind to the research.
For the study, 6 shapes of intrauterine cavity were figured, in accordance with the definitions in the ESGE - ESHRE classification. (Figure1)
Figure I uterine cavity is accepted as normal in both classifications.
Figure II uterine cavity is class VI in the ASRM classification and not classified as an abnormality in the ESGE - ESHRE classification and is considered a variance of the normal, formerly named as arcuate uterine cavity.
Figures III, IV and V uterine cavities are Va, Vb and VII numbered in ASRM classification, and U2a, U2b and U1a in ESGE - ESHRE classification, respectively.
Figure VI uterine cavity is Y-shaped uterus, which has been frequently spoken in recent years but doesn’t have any place in classifications. This definition is not included in ASRM and it can be put in the class named U1c in ESGE - ESHRE classification.
All patients included in the study had unicorpus detected by ultrasonographic evaluation.
