Abstract
Abstract:Abnormal uterine bleeding is the most common complaint in gynecology. Dilatation and Curettage is a blind procedure.Hysteroscopy has ushered in a new era in the evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding. By direct visualization of the uterine cavity it is able to pin point the etiology.

The results of hysteroscopy and dilatation and curettage were in agreement in 84% patients; hysteroscopy revealed more information than curettage in 12 % patients and curettage revealed more information than hysteroscopy in 4% patients.Hysteroscopy is an important diagnostic tool in evaluation of AUB and can be considered superior to curettage.
