Zusammenfassung:Isthmocele is a growing pathology due to the increase in the number of cesarean deliveries. Pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding are common complaints in our clinical practice, and isthmocele should be included in the differential diagnosis, especially in women who underwent previous cesarean sections. We must think of isthmocele as an increasingly frequent cause of gynecological morbidity, namely pelvic pain, abnormal uterine bleeding, and infertility. Transvaginal ultrasound has good sensitivity in diagnosing this pathology. Its correction allows for a significant clinical improvement.
