INTRODUCTION Tuboperitoneal pathology is responsible for 40-50% cases of infertility. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) & laparoscopy are the two classic methods available for evaluation of tubal pathology and are complementary to each other. Though pelvic sonography and HSG are good enough to exclude gross intrauterine pathology, but subtle changes in the form of small polyps, adhesions and seedling...

We reviewed the place of tubal surgery in the era of assisted reproductive technology. Reversal of tubal ligation is one of the main indications for tubal microsurgery. Adhesiolysis has the best results if the adhesion is the only factor responsible for infertility. There are no differences between adhesiolysis by laparoscopy or by laparotomy, and so laparoscopy must be preferred. Proximal tuba...

Abstract Background Tubal patency testing is an essential part of female subfertility evaluation. Hysterosalpingogram less invasive and expensive compared to laparoscopy dye (LDT), i.e., laparoscopic chromopertubation. Hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy) uses commercial echogenic gel foam that easily visible on ultrasound assess the tubes. It offers a safer painful alternative HSG, with no...

OBJECTIVE We analyzed the results of laparoscopic tubal surgery performed at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Kiel, between 1999 and 2000. A retrospective review of 236 tubal surgical procedures was conducted: (1) patients with ectopic pregnancies, unilateral or bilateral tubal occlusions or alterations and (2) medically indicated sterilizations and salpingectomies. ...

Pomeroy tubal ligation is a widely-used method for surgical female sterilization. A laparoscopic technique of Pomeroy tubal ligation using endoloop sutures is compared with the conventional technique of Pomeroy tubal ligation by minilaparotomy. Forty-four women requiring sterilization were randomly selected for either laparoscopy (n = 24) or minilaparotomy (n = 20). Mean operative time in the l...
