In the case described, a small perforation was assumed, which also explains the increase in deficit shortly after the perforation was assumed.Uterine perforation is a potential complication of all intrauterine procedures and can be associated with injury to surrounding blood vessels or other organs (e.G.Bladder or in-testine).If during a hysteroscopic procedure an obvious source of high fluid loss is not identified, laparoscopic assessment of potential cervical or uterine perforation should be made.The most probable cause is uterine perforation, which may have led to the death of the patient.Since the end user did not return the device and did not respond to further questions, we cannot rule out a malfunction of the device and therefore the event is reportable.
