This study investigated the occurrence of endometriosis in patients experiencing repeated abortions and found no instances of the condition.

Abstract

Laparoscopy was performed in 25 consecutive patients with two or more (range 2-6, mean 2.8) histologically documented first-trimester abortions in whom the well-established causes for recurrent miscarriages had been excluded. Endometriosis could not be diagnosed in any of the 25 women. Thus our results are against endometriosis as a cause of repeated abortion and do not support the routine inclusion of laparoscopy in the evaluation of the patient with recurrent abortions.
