Abstract

The use of laparoscopy in infertility is currently controversial. However, laparoscopic treatment of tubal and peritoneal disease, or endometriosis improves natural fecundity and ART results. The use of laparoscopy in unexplained infertility can be considered because of underestimated pelvic pathology. The result of laparoscopy may help the practitioner for choosing spontaneous pregnancy or ART postoperative management. Although there is a lack of randomized study, laparoscopy is useful for a high overall pregnancy rate (surgery and ART treatment). Rather than opposing ART and laparoscopy, the integrated approach seems better for personal management.
