Massive volume overload with severe pulmonary edema during hysteroscopy: a case report by F.Fiedler in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences  
INTRODUCTION
One of the most serious problems of therapeutic hysteroscopic procedures nowadays depending on a distending media in use, remains a fluid overload with concomitant electrolyte imbalance. This rare but very life threatening condition remains of great concern and requires interdisciplinary management from experts of different fields such as anesthesiology, intensive care, cardiology and nephrology.
The irrigating media plays an essential role during hysteroscopic operations because it distends a uterine cavity and so provides a necessary visibility. There are gasous and liquid types of media. The Carbon dioxide is obsolete because it provides insufficient visibility and can lead to severe complications such as embolism or systemic accumulation due to its high solubility.
The liquid ones vary according to their osmolality, viscosity and electrolyte content, respectively an overload can cause different kinds of pathological settings.
Depending on the type of current (monopolar vs. bipolar) the irriganting fluid may or may not content electrolytes. The electrolyte-free, low-viscosity fluids, such as Mannitol/ Sorbitol mixture, Glycin 1,5%, Glucose 5%, Sorbitol 3%  are standard media in monopolar surgery. The excessive absorption can lead to a hypoosmolal  hyperhydratation (also known as transurethral resection syndrome of prostate in urology patients) resulting in severe overload and dilutional hyponatriaemia, which can be a cause of different neurological clinical sequelae such as grand-mal-seizures and cerebral edema up to a brainstem herniation.
The isotonic solutions such as NaCl 0,9% or Ringer-Lactat on the other hand, are golden standard in bipolar hysteroscopic procedures and its systemic absorption can cause an isoosmolal hyperhydratation associated with hyperchloremic acidosis and pulmonary edema up to acute respiratory distress syndrome.
In this case report we will describe a particular clinical setting of excessive fluid overload with severe pulmonary edema in a 38-years-old female after a hysteroscopy and resectoscopy.
PATIENT’S MEDICAL HISTORY
38-years-old black woman, 55kg, presented herself for a hypermenorrhea caused by multiple submucous and intramural myomas. Due to longlasting, intense bleedings she developed iron-deficiency-anemia with hemoglobin level of 8,8g/dl. The anemia has been treated with iron infusions, vitamin-B12 and folic acid. However she was well adapted and didn’t show tachycardia or any kind of anemia- related symptoms.
Further on she suffered from infertility most likely caused by Uterus myomatosus, which had been previously treated by hysteroscopic and laparoscopic myomectomy.
Further preoperative assessment revealed an occasional smoker but otherwise healthy patient and routine laboratory analysis were unremarkable except for earlier mentioned anemia. The previous general anaesthesias were uneventful and she was classified as ASA II- patient. The premedication consisted of 7,5mg Midazolam p.o.
THE PROCEDURE AND INTRAOPERATIVE SETTING
After the general anesthesia has been inducted, consisting of 200mg Propofol, 0,2mg Fentanyl and 6mg Cisatracurium, patient was intubated uneventfully. A single-shot-antibiotic with 2g Cefazolin was administered before surgical start. Further anaesthesia was maintained with Sevoflurane (endexpiratory concentration 1,2 vol%) during low-flow-volume-controlled-ventilation.
The hysteroscopy was performed with a physiological saline solution as a distending medium administered by Karl Storz Hamou Endomat pump in hysteroscopy modul within preselected pressure- (max.150mmHg) and flow- range (max.400ml/min). The resectoscope had an active suction channel and myomectomy was facilitated with bipolar current.
After a resection time of 35 minutes the operating procedure became complicated due to big intracavitary myomas, consequently a larger amount of distending media was required to keep the visibility during the hysteroscopy. The efflux of the irrigating fluid wasn’t monitored because of the high amount lost in the sterile drapes.
In the meantime the patient developed mild tachycardia with descrete ST-depressions, that disappeared after deepening the anaesthesia. Further on she developed high respiratory pressures and the accurate examination of the patient lying in Trendelenburg position and in a dark operating theatre revealed swollen face that was missinterpreted as Quincke-edema and immediately treated with 4mg Dimetinden, 50mg Ranitidin and 500mg Prednisone.
The immediate termination of the procedure revealed a general swelling of a patient especially in abdominal and facial region. The uterus perforation was denied by the gynaecologist but due to threatening abdominal compartment syndrome an urgent laparoscopy was preformed, which revealed 2,5l of intraabdominal fluid. At that point the gynaecologist declared 9l deficit between the in- and outflow of the irrigating fluid.
Meanwhile the ventilation was severly impeded by massive pulmonary edema and 1,5l clear fluid was suctioned from the endotrachal tube. The oxygen saturation dropped to 53% and the inspiratory peak pressure reached up to 60 mmHg. The diuresis was stimulated by 80mg furosemid.
Under full mechanical ventilation support with high positive endexpiratory pressure and analgosedation we transferred the patient to the ICU.
ICU-MANAGEMENT
By the admission to the ICU the arterial blood gas analysis revealed
pH 6,95
pO2 92,2 mmHg
pCO2 58 mmHg
SO2 87%
HCO3 12,7 mmHg
BE -17,8 mmHg
Hb 6,5 g/dl
K+ 2,9mmol/l
Na+ 142 mmol/l
Lactat acid 4,27 mmol/l
The combined (hyperchloremic and respiratory) acidosis reached it’s peak later, when HCO3 dropped to 6,9 mmHg and was treated aggressively by 200mg HCO3 8,4%. The potassium substitution was administered via central venous line.
Noradrenaline was used to stabilize the circulation and the volume therapy was monitored with invasive hemodynamic monitoring (PICCOR), which revealed hypovolemia (GEDI 444 ml/m2) and pulmonary edema (ELWI 13 ml/kg) despite sufficient systemic vascular resistance (SVRI 3949 dyn*s*cm-5*m2) and good pump function (Cardiac Index 3,34 l/min/m2).
The 30,6 C° body temperature was treated with an active warming system for the next 18h until the normal temperature was reached.
The intraabdominal pressure was measured by bladder pressure monitoring (14 mmHg).
The oxygenation increased with forced diuresis and positive endexpiratory pressure ventilation (12 cmH2O).
Figure 1: Chest X-ray reveals pulmonary edema after ICU admission
After 24h of fully controlled mechanical ventilation and 6800ml of diuresis the sedation medication was terminated and the patient extubated uneventfully. No further ventilation support or vasoactive medication was required. The patient recovered in the matter of 72 hours and was discharged from the hospital on the day 7 with a mild arterial hypertension, that was treated by Hydrochlorthiazide 25mg a day.
DISCUSSION
 The isoosmolar hyperhydratation due to massive absorption of irrigating fluid, also known as Operative Hysteroscopy Intravascular Absorption Syndrome (OHIA)  is a life threatening complication of the bipolar resectoscopic procedures.
There are three different manners the distending fluid can be absorbed:
the fluid instillation in peritoneal cavity via fallopian tubes causing a high amount of free abdominal fluid, which can lead up to an abdominal compartment syndrome
 the absorption via endo- and myometrium causing a massive subcutan fluid overload
the intravascular absorption due to exceed of the venous vascular pressure of  endometrium by an irrigating fluid pressure causing expansion of plasma volume and consequently intravascular fluid overload.
This case report shows a massive absorption of distending fluid mostly throughout the endometrium causing generalized and later on pulmonary edema and throughout fallopian tubes causing acute abdomen. The delayed diagnosis of this complication was due to unreported imbalance between the irrigating fluid instilled (12 litres) and the volume recovered (3 litres) from the patient. Other conditions that impeded the early diagnosis were darkened operating theatre because of the hysteroscopy and Trendelenburg position of the patient, fully covered in warm sheets in order to prevent hypothermia.
The threatening abdominal compartment was promptly treated by an urgent laparoscopy and the patient responded very well to a complex symptom-orientated intensive care therapy. A mild arterial hypertension is a residual symptom of a massive NaCl-absorption and respectively delayed sodium and water excretion and is expected to disappear within days.
The top priority is the prevention of the excessive absorption and once this complication occurred, its rapid, correct diagnosis as well as early-goal-therapy is essential. The fundamental knowledge of different distending media and its possible complications must be considered by the gynecologist and anesthesiologist. Once the distending medium has been determined, certain strategy must be applied in order to avoid the massive fluid overload. The exact amount of administered and removed irrigating fluid must be accurately monitored, which can be impeded be different factors such as spilling the media on the floor or in sterile sheets, not exact amount of media in the bag (varies up to 5%), difficult estimation of not-used fluid in the bag. The irrigation pressure limit should be lower then the mean arterial pressure whenever possible and complicated operative procedures that take longer time such as myomectomy require splitting in two sessions.
As soon as the difference of instilled and recovered amount reaches the limit, that should be set a priori or a patient starts showing symptoms, the measurement of electrolytes, osmolality and arterial blood gasses should be preformed and the procedure terminated as soon as possible.

Understanding Hysteroscopy: A Minimally Invasive Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedure
Hysteroscopy is a revolutionary medical procedure that has transformed the way gynecological conditions are diagnosed and treated. It offers a minimally invasive approach, providing numerous benefits to both patients and healthcare providers. In this article, we will delve into the world of hysteroscopy, exploring its purpose, procedure, and the advantages it brings to women’s healthcare.
What is Hysteroscopy?Hysteroscopy is a medical technique that involves inserting a slender, lighted instrument called a hysteroscope into the uterus through the vagina and cervix. This enables direct visualization of the uterine cavity, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment of various conditions. It is typically performed on an outpatient basis and is considered a safe and effective procedure.
Benefits of a Minimally Invasive Approach:One of the significant advantages of hysteroscopy is that it is minimally invasive, meaning it requires only small incisions or no incisions at all. This leads to reduced pain, shorter recovery time, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgeries. It also lowers the risk of complications and allows for a quicker return to daily activities.
Diagnostic Hysteroscopy:Hysteroscopy plays a vital role in diagnosing various gynecological conditions. It provides a clear view of the uterine cavity, allowing the healthcare provider to identify abnormalities such as polyps, fibroids, adhesions, or structural issues. With hysteroscopy, precise biopsies can be taken, and tissue samples can be obtained for further evaluation.
Therapeutic Hysteroscopy:Not only is hysteroscopy diagnostic, but it is also therapeutic. It offers the opportunity to treat certain conditions directly during the procedure. For example, polyps or fibroids can be removed, adhesions can be released, and abnormal tissue can be excised. Hysteroscopy enables targeted interventions, reducing the need for more invasive surgeries and promoting optimal patient outcomes.
Advancements in Women’s Healthcare:Hysteroscopy has brought about significant advancements in women’s healthcare. It has revolutionized the management of conditions such as abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, endometrial abnormalities, and uterine malformations. The procedure allows for precise and tailored treatments, improving patient satisfaction and quality of life.
Patient Experience and Recovery:Patients undergoing hysteroscopy often report a positive experience. The procedure is usually performed under anesthesia or conscious sedation, ensuring patient comfort. Recovery is typically quick, with minimal discomfort and a short hospital stay, if any. Within a few days, the majority of people are able to return to their normal activities.
Conclusion:Hysteroscopy has emerged as a valuable tool in the field of women’s healthcare, providing a minimally invasive approach to diagnosis and treatment. Its ability to visualize and address uterine conditions with precision has transformed the management of various gynecological issues. As advancements continue to be made, hysteroscopy promises even better outcomes for women worldwide, empowering them with improved health and well-being.

What are complications of hysteroscopy?
Hysteroscopy is a medical procedure that involves examining the inside of the uterus using a thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope. It is commonly used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. While hysteroscopy is generally considered safe, like any medical procedure, it carries some risks and potential complications. These complications may include:
Infection: There is a risk of infection anytime an instrument is introduced into the body. However, the risk is relatively low with hysteroscopy. Antibiotics are sometimes prescribed before the procedure to minimize this risk.
Bleeding: Some degree of bleeding is normal after a hysteroscopy, but excessive bleeding can occur in rare cases. Women who are prone to bleeding disorders may be at a higher risk.
Perforation: There is a small risk of perforating the uterus or damaging other pelvic organs during the procedure. Perforation may require additional surgery to repair.
Fluid overload: During hysteroscopy, a liquid or gas may be used to expand the uterus for better visibility. In rare cases, the absorption of excessive fluid can lead to fluid overload, which may cause complications such as electrolyte imbalance or respiratory distress.
Allergic reaction: Some individuals may have an allergic reaction to medications or substances used during the procedure, such as anesthesia or the fluids used to expand the uterus.
Adverse reaction to anesthesia: If general anesthesia or sedation is used, there is a risk of complications related to the anesthesia, such as respiratory problems or allergic reactions.
Persistent pain: Some women may experience persistent pelvic pain or discomfort after the procedure.
Fertility issues: In rare cases, hysteroscopy may cause scarring or other damage to the uterine lining, potentially affecting fertility.

Most common surgeries done by gynecologist surgeon
Gynecology surgery comprises any surgical procedure that involves the organs and structure of the female pelvic region: the ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, cervix, vulva, and vagina. There are several reasons why a woman might need to go through gynecology surgery. She might need treatment for a condition such as fibroids (benign tumors), endometriosis, cancer, ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding or uterine prolapse. Gynecology surgery can also be used as permanent birth control.
The most common surgeries done by gynecologist surgeon are as follows:
Cervical Cryosurgery
Abnormal cervical cells are at times discovered during a routine Pap smear. Abnormal cells do not always indicate cancer, but your healthcare provider will likely want to do some follow-up tests or procedures. One procedure they might recommend is cervical cryosurgery. This procedure is a highly effective gynecological treatment that freezes a section of the cervix. Cryosurgery destroys these cells to stop them from developing into cancer.
Hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy is a process that your healthcare provider may use to diagnose or treat uterine issues. This procedure might be used to:
Locate an intrauterine device
Remove adhesions (scar tissue)
Determine the cause of repeated miscarriage
During this procedure, a healthcare professional inserts a hysteroscope, a lighted, thin, telescope-like instrument, into your uterus through the vagina. Then, it sends pictures of your uterus to a screen for further test.
Pelvic Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure usually performed under general anesthesia. But it can be performed with other types of anesthesia while you are awake. It is used for:
Gallbladder removal
Tubal ligation (tying the fallopian tubes for permanent birth control)
Treating endometriosis and uterine fibroids
Hernia repair
The typical pelvic laparoscopy involves a small incision in the belly button or lower abdomen. A surgeon then pumps carbon dioxide into your abdomen to help them see your organs easily.
Dilation and Curettage 
It is one of the most common gynecological procedures. During this process, a healthcare provider removes a portion of your uterine lining with a suction device or a sharp curette. The procedure can diagnose uterine conditions, including: 
Uterine cancer 
Endometrial hyperplasia (an abnormally thick uterine lining)
Uterine polyps (overgrowth of tissue in the uterine lining)
In addition, D&Cs are commonly used for miscarriage, abortion procedures, molar pregnancy, and retained placenta.
Common gynecological procedures by gynecologist surgeon include colposcopy, cervical cryosurgery, D&C, LEEP, hysteroscopy, and pelvic laparoscopy. Most of these procedures can help healthcare providers get a better look at the cervix, uterus, and vagina and take samples for a biopsy. Some of them can also treat specific conditions.
Understandably, you might have concerns about any process your healthcare provider or gynecologist recommends. Learning as much as you can is a good idea. In addition, it is essential to ask your doctor any questions you might have. Finally, do not forget to tell them if you may be pregnant, even though they usually do a test to check first.
