• Abstract:

  Objective: To analyze the application of surgical hysteroscopy in the treatment of uterine disorders that cause infertility in women of reproductive age. Methodology: A bibliographic review covering the period from 2018 to 2023 was carried out, using the Scielo and PubMed databases. 114 articles were found, of which 16 studies were selected according to the inclusion criteria. Results: The effectiveness of the treatment is directly related to the choice of technique and instruments used, taking into consideration, the need and medical preference, as well as the complexity of the clinical case. Surgical hysteroscopy has advantages such as low cost, quick recovery, dependence on the operator to ensure effectiveness, minimally invasive character allowing its performance both in clinical and hospital environments. In addition to its application as a diagnostic technique, it can be used in surgical procedures. The absence of scars, hospital discharge on the same day without the risk of complications, and direct access to the uterus stand out, enabling precise and specific therapeutic interventions, which results in improvements in the subsequent pregnancy rate in specific situations. Conclusion: Surgical hysteroscopy demonstrates a high success rate in the treatment of uterine disorders that cause infertility, contributing to the improvement of reproductive health and the increase in the pregnancy success rate in women with these disorders. To establish conclusions and clinical considerations about this procedure, additional studies and research are needed.
