All hysteroscopies were successfully carried out with the hymen intact and the therapeutic results were excellent. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: University-affiliated hospital, department of obstetrics and gynecology. PATIENTS: Fourteen unmarried women who underwent hysteroscopy on the condition of keeping the hymen intact. INTERVENTIONS: Hysteroscopy was used for the diagnosis and treatment of pathological changes in the uterine cavity of women with an intact hymen. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: All 14 hysteroscopies were successfully carried out with the hymen intact, and the therapeutic results were excellent.
