description The hospital diagnostic dilatation and curettage is the most widely used method in investigating abnormal uterine bleeding. This procedure is expensive and inconvenient and poses some surgical and anesthetic risks. As an alternative to hospital dilatation and curettage, the procedure of office hysteroscopy and suction curettage was evaluated in 406 patients. The indications for the procedure are similar to the classic indications for a diagnostic dilatation and curettage. The method is convenient, safe, and relatively inexpensive. The diagnostic accuracy of office hysteroscopy and suction curettage surpasses prior reports of the accuracy of diagnostic dilatation and curettage. Office hysteroscopy and suction curettage should be the method of choice in the evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding.
