I think you are enquiring regarding a hysteroscopy and polypectomy which is seeing the inside of the uterus with a camera, seeing the number of polyps and removing them under camera guidance, when we do it without camera guidance it is called D and C where we scrape the cavity and remove the polyps. Hysterectomy is removing the entire uterus
