LAPAROSCOPY IN 50 INFERTILE COUPLES: PROSPECTIVE STUDY
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Clinical Research - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Use of diagnostic and therapeutic laparoscopy in infertility has been a focus of attention in recent years and demonstrated to be very effective method in evaluating these cases.. In our study, we were able to carry out therapeutic intervention in 22 cases (61.1%). It is observed that diagnostic laparoscopy is indicated in all cases of bilateral tubal anomalies and has identified important pelvic pathology in significant number of selected infertile patients even after normal findings. It is concluded that laparoscopy is useful in diagnosing cases with endometriosis and tubal factor infertility and exclusion of bilateral anatomical tubal pathology by diagnostic laparoscopy could avoid IVF treatment in these cases. The importance & scope of newer procedure like fertiloscopy along with laparoscopic evaluation is also discussed.
