Abstract

Within the in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer procedure, 127 laparoscopies were performed in 89 women. The only indication was tubal infertility. There were 116 gonadotropin stimulated cycles and 11 clomiphene citrate stimulated cycles. Because of a limited ovarian access laparoscopic adhesiolysis was necessary in 30%. Egg recovery amounted to 440 oocytes in 92% successful laparoscopies, which represents 4.1 oocytes per laparoscopy. This resulted in 15 pregnancies of which 3 ended with spontaneous abortion, 6 biochemical and 6 ongoing pregnancies. Two pregnancies resulted in the live birth of normal twins, and one in the birth of a healthy girl.
