A rare case of chronic endometritis treated with hysteroscopy

We present a case of 32 year old woman complaining of menometrorrhagia with chronic pelvic pain of following second trimester abortion. Her transabdominal ultrasound revealed chronic endometritis. She was treated with dilatation and curettage, on histopathological examination diagnosis of chronic endometritis was confirmed. Her menorrhagia was revealed but chronic pelvic pain persisted for which diagnostic hysteroscopy was planned. It revealed presence of tiny bony chips which were removed in the same setting. Intrauterine retained foetal bony chips due to previous medical termination of pregnancy were identified to be the cause of menometrorrhagia with chronic pelvic pain in the present case. Our case reiterates the importance of hysteroscopy in evaluation of such patients who are not responding to conventional medical management of abnormal uterine bleeding.
