ReviewAnesthesia for office endometrial procedures: a review of the literature.
Providing anesthesia for office endometrial procedures is a clinical challenge. The available techniques include the traditional paracervical block, the deep paracervical block, intrauterine lidocaine, topical spray lignocaine, and conscious sedation. Each offers some benefit in providing anesthesia during these procedures and can contribute to a more comfortable experience for the patient.
