Unless there is some pathology in the stump it may not be necessary to take it out, and if you are going to put in a hysteroscope, you just slide it in under continuous vision watching all the time as it advances, thus there shouldn't be a problem about what is likely to happen at the fundus of the stump.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit.
