This study evaluates the addition of collagen scaffold loaded with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells(ABMNC) to Foley catheter balloon after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis in the treatment of severe asherman syndrome. Half of participants will receive collagen/ABMNC scaffold after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, while the other half will receive Foley catheter balloon.
Severe asherman syndrome will lead to infertility, and the most common method to treat asherman syndrome is operating to dissect adhesions. In order to prevent the postoperative re-adhesion, many physical isolation measures have been tried. However, they don't improve the microenvironment of endometrial regeneration. It's reported that bone marrow mononuclear cells have good effects on the functional recovery of injured uterus. This study will determine whether collagen scaffolds loaded with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells will be more effective than Foley balloon catheters at treating infertile women with severe intrauterine adhesions who have taken hysteroscopic adhesiolysis. In addition, the study will be carried out in 2 centers, one is the Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School, the other is Changzhou Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital that is in Jiangsu Province.

| collagen/ABMNC scaffold | Device | The patients will receive a bone marrow puncture to collect bone marrow cells which are used to isolation of ABMNCs. After that, hysteroscopic adhesiolysis will be done according to the patient's uterine adhesion. Then, the collagen/ABMNCs scaffold was covered on a Foley catheter balloon and placed into the uterine cavity. The catheter balloon was kept for 24 hours and then removed. Oral antibiotics were given to prevent infection in the second and third days after operation. 72 hours after the surgery, a vaginal speculum examinations will be done in order to make patients unknown about their arms. Estrogen will be administrated for 3 cycles to support the endometrial regeneration after the surgery. The clinical follow up will be done at 1, 3 and 6 months after the procedure. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Ongoing pregnancy rate | A successful clinical pregnancy means that at the 12th week of pregnancy, ultrasound reveals that the fetus had a heart activity and the size of the fetus is in consistent with the gestational week. | up to 24 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Menstrual volumes and menstrual improvement: | PBAC scores in the third and sixth menstrual cycles after the initial adhesiolysis and PBAC scores increase compared to pre-operation | at 3 and 6 months post-operation |
| Maximal endometrial thickness |

| Foley catheter balloon | Device | The patients will receive a sham bone marrow puncture which just has a local anesthesia and collects no bone marrow cells to isolation. After that, hysteroscopic adhesiolysis will be done according to the patient's uterine adhesion. And then, a Foley catheter balloon will be placed into the uterine cavity and kept for 72 hours before it is removed. Oral antibiotics were given to prevent infection in the second and third days after operation. Estrogen will be administrated for 3 cycles to support the endometrial regeneration after the surgery. The clinical follow up will be done at 1, 3 and 6 months after the procedure. |
