Objective To observe the efficacy of Foley balloon combining with uterine adhesions to prevent the recurrence of intrauterine adhesions after resection of intrauterine adhesions.Methods Patients underwent resection of intrauterine adhesions were randomized into two groups. 30 patients in control group underwent the therapy of uterine adhesions to prevent the relapse intrauterine. On the other hand, the study group with 30 patients were placed Foley balloon for 5 ~ 7 days and combined with the therapy of uterine adhesions to intervention for 1 ~ 2 weeks. All patients were followed-up for 1 ~ 2 months, and the result of the intrauterine adhesion were assessed by hysteroscopy.Results The rate of the relapse in control group was 3.33%; the study group had the same result (the rate was 3.33%). There was no difference between these two groups.Conclusions The rate of recurrent intrauterine adhesions is no different between the control group of only use therapy of uterine adhesions and replacement of Foley balloon combining with therapy of uterine adhesions as intervention.
