A new case for the list. 52 yr old with Lippes loop for 25 years. No problems. She is new patient and diag hysterscope shows lippes on posterior wall. unable to remove in office. Did not have a Knitting type needle, but all long forceps were unsucessful in grasping due to jaws and hinge configuration. A 0 and #1 currette were also unsucessful. I need to know if there is any evidence that would suggest that this be removed in the OR. I intend to get a IUD type hoo remover and give that a try. The couple is concerned whether there is any compelling reason to proceed any furthur- I am unaware of any data regarding chronic inflammation and neoplasia. ebodoc Ed Ryan,M.D.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
