Value of laparoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of female infertility

Objective To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of female infertility, and to provide references for the application of laparoscopy. Methods One hundred and two females diagnosed as infertility were treated by laparoscopy and corresponding treatments. Pathological samples were collected during the surgery and analyzed for pathological diagnosis. Predisposing factors for female infertility were analyzed. All the patients were followed up for over 18 months. Results The incidences of pelvic inflammatory disease and polycystic ovary syndrome in the secondary pregnant patients were significantly higher than those in the primary pregnant patients (P0.05). Among the predisposing factors for infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease has the highest incidence (accounting for 48.04%), followed by endometriosis (28.43%), both showing statistically significant difference with other factors (P0.05). Ninety-eight of the 102 patients (96.08%, 98/102) were followed up for 18～36 months. During the follow-up, 65 patients (a total of 72 times) were found with pregnancy, with the pregnancy rate of 66.33%. Conclusion Laparoscopy can improve the detection rate of the predisposing factors for female infertility, which has great significance in the clinical diagnosis of female infertility, the development of reasonable and viable treatment programs, and the improvement of pregnancy.
