  • Title: [Tubal factors as possible causes of sterility or infertility of primigravidae, following therapeutic abortion (author's transl)].
    Author: Schott G, Kreibich H, Ehrig E.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1981; 103(6):355-62. PubMed ID: 7234228.
    Abstract:
    A screening test was applied to 136 primigravidae, between six months and one year following therapeutic abortion, to check tubal patency, using pertubation, according to Semm. --The methodical errors involved were compared and checked by laparoscopy with chromopertubation. --Reference is made to effects of age at the time of abortion, week of pregnancy, and technique of abortion. --Complete tubal occlusion, as a secondary cause of secondary sterility in the wake of therapeutic abortion, was recorded from 2.96 per cent of the above primigravidae. The rate of tubal infertility (tubal abortion or extra-uterine gravidity) was not significantly increased beyond the figures of other patients (0.96 per cent of all primigravidae, following therapeutic abortion). --Derived from the above results are recommendations for techniques of abortion which should be used on primigravidae.
