Inflammatory cytokine signatures predict postoperative intrauterine adhesions after hysteroscopic fibroid resection: Evidence from a prospective cohort

Key Points

• To assess the relationship between inflammatory cytokine levels and the formation of postoperative intrauterine adhesions after hysteroscopic myomectomy.
• Prospective cohort analysis of postoperative patients
• Measurement of IL-6 and CRP levels during the perioperative period
• Evaluation of adhesion formation following surgery.
• Elevated IL-6 levels are strongly associated with the formation of postoperative intrauterine adhesions.
• CRP levels also correlate with adhesion development post-surgery.
• Study findings support risk-stratified surveillance approaches for future multicenter studies.
