  • Title: [Early second-look laparoscopy following surgical sterility interventions with the CO2 laser].
    Author: Schieder K, Kölbl H, Dadak C, Janisch H.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1987 Oct; 47(10):721-3. PubMed ID: 2960584.
    Abstract:
    10 (48%) bilateral, 5 (24%) unilateral tubostomies, 1 (5%) unilateral and 1 (5%) bilateral fimbrioplastic were performed in 21 sterility patients. 21 female sterility patients underwent short-interval second-look-laparoscopy 8 days after reconstructive surgery (salpingostomy-10 bilateral/5 unilateral, fimbrioplasty-1 bilateral/1 unilateral, adhaesiolysis--16 bilateral/3 uni-lateral). The occurrence of postoperative adhesions was judged by the use of an adhesions-score. Compared to fertility surgery the initial median adhesion-score significantly decreased (p less than 0.0003--Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test). A further reduction of the median adhesions-score could be achieved by short-interval-second-look-laparoscopy (p less than 0.0001). Within an observation time of 11 +/- 3.8 months one (5%) ectopic and 4 intrauterine pregnancies (19%) were found.
