  • Title: Results of laparoscopic recovery of preovulatory human oocytes from nonstimulated ovaries in an ongoing in vitro fertilization program.
    Author: Feichtinger W, Szalay S, Beck A, Kemeter P, Janisch H.
    Journal: Fertil Steril; 1981 Dec; 36(6):707-11. PubMed ID: 6458516.
    Abstract:
    The technique and results of 50 laparoscopies performed on sterility patients to obtain mature oocytes from Graafian follicles with a view to carrying out in vitro fertilization are described. In 32% of all laparoscopies and in 52% of all punctured follicles it proved possible to obtain a mature oocyte. Different diameters of puncture needles as well as different suction intensities are compared. As a result of increasing experience and improved technique, the exact time for the intervention was correctly determined in 92% of cases. The recovery rate for oocytes was also increased to 58% with respect to laparoscopies carried out.
