    Abstract:
    A total of 87 refertilization operations in the distal tubal segment are reported. Tubal obstructions developed following inflammations of the pelvis. Hysterosalpingography and laparoscopy were used to learn about the patients' anatomy and these served as bases for assessing the changes of pregnancy following recanalization. The interventions were made by applying up-to-date microtechnical methods and instruments. Among the causes of tubal infertility, the interruption of the first pregnancy showed a marked prevalence. The 20 pregnancies that ensued correspond to a success rate of 23%. Mature deliveries occurred in 17 cases. A considerable proportion of the pregnancies occurred within a year of the operation. The effectiveness is mainly influenced by adhesions in the pelvis and the characteristics of the distal tubal segment. The surgical solution is worth attempting when the expected chances are over 20%.
