  • Title: [Recovery of human oocytes (author's transl)].
    Author: Weise W.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1980; 102(14):753-61. PubMed ID: 6451118.
    Abstract:
    Oocyte recovery was attempted on 62 women, with laparoscopy being applied to 46 and surgical treatment to 16. The attempts were successful in 56 per cent of them, with 61 oocytes being recovered. Twenty per cent of these were pre-ovulatory, 52 per cent non-ovulatory, and 28 per cent degenerated. The amount of oocytes recovered by laparoscopy was 25 per cent below that obtained from surgery. Possible variants of oocyte recovery are discussed. --Follicular puncture can be undertaken in concomitance with gynaecological operations, by the vaginal or abdominal routes. Less difficulty is implied in puncturing the extirpated ovary. Uterus or tube washing and ovarian extirpation are other possible approaches. Ovarian implantation and perfusion may be considered theoretical approaches to oocyte recovery. Laparoscopy or colpotomy are believed to be, possibly, the most promising approaches to oocyte transplantation, which may become relevant in the long run.
