In order to adequately assess the effectiveness of danazol, gestrinone, buserelin-nasal spray (IN) and buserelin-implant (SC), a prospective non randomized study was initiated in 178 patients with laparoscopically confirmed ovarian endometr…
Used endoscopically, the CO2 laser offers some advantages over other operative techniques for endometriosis and adhesions but, in spite of the continuing development of new instrumentation there are still problems with the system. The techn…
Seven hundred fourteen patients underwent CO2 laser laparoscopy for endometriosis (mild = 343, moderate = 211, severe = 160). Following laser treatment the term pregnancy rate was 52% within 18 months. The operating time ranged from 30 to 6…
To evaluate the persistence of endometriosis and the morphologic changes occurring in endometriotic foci after hormonal therapy, microsurgical resection of ovarian endometriosis was performed in 148 women. After hormonal therapy (n = 116), …
To evaluate the results of 54 microsurgical anastomoses in relation to histologic findings, serial sections from 102 stenosed tubal portions (n = 54 women) were examined. The term pregnancy rate was 41% in our series. Unfavorable histologic…
One hundred twenty-four infertile women either with endometriosis (n = 70) or with adnexal adhesions (n = 54) were treated with the carbon dioxide laser used laparoscopically and were followed for 18 months. Removal of endometriotic implant…
The advantages of microsurgical anastomosis for cornual occlusion are evaluated in a series of 82 pure cases of pathologic cornual occlusion. The term pregnancy rate was 44% and the ectopic pregnancy rate was 7%. The following factors were …
To study the effect of endometriosis on follicular rupture, endometrial tissue was autografted to New Zealand White rabbits. Endometrium was surgically implanted into the peritoneal cavity. Human chorionic gonadotropin was administered to i…

Between the years 1977 and 1982, laparoscopy was performed on 900 patients where the diagnosis of infertility was made in our department. In the patients' histories events which were considered relevant to subsequent tubal pathology were st…

Hysterosalpingography and laparoscopy were performed in 500 infertile women. Results obtained by both techniques were compared. Taking into consideration only the tubal patency, the present study shows an agreement in 90% of cases. In total…
