Prediction of vesicouterine adhesions by transvaginal sonographic sliding sign technique: validation study

OBJECTIVE: Adhesions between the uterus, bladder and anterior abdominal wall are associated with clinical sequelae, including chronic pelvic pain and dyspareunia, and can also yield complications during surgery. The transvaginal sonographic (TVS) sliding bladder sign is a minimally invasive diagnostic tool to evaluate the presence of vesicouterine adhesions.
