Abstract
Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) was performed on 77 women with endometriosis in 92 cycles with or without concomitant laser therapy or electrofulguration of endometriosis. The pregnancy rates were 45% for laser cases, 25% for electrofulguration cases and 36.4% for GIFT only. The pregnancy rate for stage III endometriosis was 53% versus 14% and 47% for stages II and I, respectively. Although there was a trend toward an increased pregnancy yield with active therapy, no statistically significant difference was achieved. The postoperative fecundity in patients not conceiving with GIFT was poor for all the groups.
