ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate clinical effects of combined use of hysteroscopy and laparoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility with uterine septum,and to analyze the relationship between infertility and uterine septum. Methods Surgery using hysteroscopy combined with laparoscopy was performed in 110 patients with infertility accompanying uterine septum,including primary infertility in 78 patients and secondary infertility in 32 patients.The relative infertility factors and post-operative pregnancy prognoses were analyzed. Results Unexplained infertility accounted for 40% of patients(44/110).As of March 2006,a total of 82 patients were successfully followed.The total post-operative pregnancy rate was 45.1%(37/82),consisting of 46.6% in patients with primary infertility(27/58) and 41.7% in patients with secondary infertility(10/24),without significant difference between the two groups(?~2=0.164,P=0.686).The post-operative pregnancy rates in patients with unexplained infertility and etiologically-clarified infertility were 51.2%(22/43) and 38.5%(15/39),respectively,without significant difference(?~2=1.332,P=0.248).In patients with unexplained infertility,the post-operative pregnancy rate for primary infertility was 56.7%(17/30) and for secondary infertility,38.5%(5/13). Conclusions Combined use of hysteroscopy and laparoscopy for infertility with uterine septum can improve the post-operative pregnancy rate.The presence of uterine septum bears some relationship to the incidence of infertility.
