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…
One hundred infertile patients with laparoscopically confirmed ovarian endometriosis were treated with either intranasal (IN) Buserelin (Hoechst, AG, Frankfurt am Main, West Germany) (300 micrograms three times a day) or subcutaneous (SC) B…
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…
Fifty patients with moderate or severe endometriosis received 5 mg/day lynestrenol for 6 months prior to microsurgery. A significant regression of the ovarian and peritoneal implants was observed in 72% of the cases after progestative treat…
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…
Eighty-two women with symmetric cornual blockage were selected for evaluation of the results of microsurgical anastomosis in relation to data from preoperative hysterosalpingography and histologic study of excised tubal specimens. Serial se…
