Laparoscopy detected significantly more gynecologic abnormalities, such as internal genital infection and endometriosis, in infertile women than gynecologic examinations alone.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

In a study of internal genital infection and endometriosis, gynecologic examinations discovered only 46 patients (14.9%) with these abnormalities out of 308, but laparoscopic examinations of the same patients detected far more patients with these abnormalities (208, or 67.5%). Thus, laparoscopic examinations can prove useful in improving the clinical diagnosis of infertility in women.
