Endoscopic development and its future does depend on new inventions, on the audacity of leading heroes, their input into this field but also on their management of life to continue to survive and on a healthy and successful cooperation with the medical technical industry and the governments of our countries which grant us the freedom of research and development for the best of all our patients. In 1967 I attended a Medical meeting in Munich, Germany, and heard a lecture of Kurt Semm on Laparoscopic Surgery, it fascinated me. Kurt Semm became the chairman of the Kiel University Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1970. This was were I graduated from medical school. At that time working in the jungles of Peru in General Surgery at the Amazone Hospital Albert Schweitzer I applied for a residency position in Gynecology and Obstetrics at Kiel university. He wrote me back that I can start any time, mentioning that a “jungle girl” should know what she wants and he did not need to see any application papers.

  • Estimation of a Lower Bound for the Cumulative Incidence of Failure Of
    CHAPTER 1 Introduction 11 1.1 Background The incidence of failure of a method for contraception is generally a matter of great interest to any person who uses, or whose sexual partner uses, that method. Not surprisingly, there is a large volume of research into the failure rates of all of the temporary methods for human contraception. However, there is a much more modest literature on the cumulative incidence of failure and annual failure rates of permanent sterilisation, particularly failures of female tubal sterilisation - often called “tubal ligation”, but including any means for occluding or interrupting the Fallopian tubes by surgical means. This is somewhat surprising given that female tubal sterilisation remains one of the most popular and widely used means of contraception. The Australian Study of Health and Relationships, which was conducted between May 2001 and June 2002 using a representative sample of 9,134 women aged 16 to 59 years, found that of the two-thirds of respondents who reported using some form of contraception, 22.5 per cent relied on tubal ligation or hysterectomy (these were not further distinguished), which was second in popularity only to oral contraceptives.1 The proportion of women in the 40-49 year age group who relied on tubal ligation or hysterectomy was 33 per cent, which was second in popularity only to vasectomy in the partner (34.6 per cent). In the 1995 United States Survey of Family Growth, conducted by the US National Center for Health Statistics, surgical sterilisation was the method of choice in

  • Association Between History of Abdominopelvic Surgery and Tubal Pathology
    Association between history of abdominopelvic surgery and tubal pathology *Famurewa O1, Adeyemi A2, Ibitoye O1, Ogunsemoyin O3 1. Department of Radiology, Obafemi Awolowo University and Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital, Nigeria 2. Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Obafemi Awolowo University, Nigeria 3. Department of Radiology, Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital, Nigeria Abstract Background: Pelvic infection, unsafe abortion and previous laparatomy are risk factors for tubal infertility among Nigerian women. Reports on the relationship between these factors and tubal pathology seen on hysterosalpingography (HSG) from our environment have been few. Objective: To assess the prevalence of tubal occlusions among patients referred for HSG and examine the association between previous history of abdominopelvic surgery (including dilatation and curettage for abortion) and tubal occlusion. Methods: We studied one hundred and thirty women referred to the Radiology department for HSG because of infertility. HSG was performed during the early proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. Information about type and duration of infertility, history of abdomino -pelvic surgery and history suggestive of previous pelvic infection, were obtained from the patients. The data obtained were analyzed using SPSS version 11.Test of association using the chi-square test was done where appropriate and differences were considered at p= 0.05. Results: Sixty one women had bilaterally patent tubes; tubal pathology was seen in sixty nine women. Significant association exits between tubal pathology and history of pelvic surgery p=0.01, pelvic infection p=0.02 and duration of infertility p=0.04. Conclusion: Previous surgery especially dilation and curettage, PID duration and type of infertility are associated with tubal pathology among Nigerian women.

The Internet Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics. 2009 Volume 12 Number 2. Abstract BackgroundThe introduction of fertiloscopy has revolutionized the investigation and treatment of patients with unexplained infertility. Hitherto, this group of patients have been either been subjected to ineffective treatment, or been ‘over treated’. TechniqueAs fertiloscopy is a relatively new technique, it is essential for practitioners to be educated regarding the proper techniques in order to carry out the procedure successfully with minimal complications. The five important steps in fertiloscopy are described in detail. Evidence Acquisition/ JustificationA multicentre prospective randomized study (FLY) was conducted to compare both fertiloscopy and laparoscopy as first line investigations for infertile patients. The conclusion of FLY study was that: “Fertiloscopy should replace laparoscopy in infertile women with no obvious pathology”. ConclusionFertiloscopy is at least as accurate as laparoscopy and dye test, with less risk and morbidity. In addition, fertiloscopy allows the evaluation of tubal mucosa. Hence, fertiloscopy should be seriously considered as the first line investigation for infertile patients. BACKGROUND A third alternative is by offering an abdominal laparoscopy. The management of unexplained infertility has always been This is the currently the accepted “gold standard” for challenging. This is because if the cause of infertility is not establishing causes of infertility due to pathologies in the established, treatment decision is basically based on fallopian tubes or the pelvis structures surrounding the therapeutic trial. This is far from ideal and will subsequently uterus.(2,3) However, laparoscopy is a non-trivial surgical result in emotional, physical and financial strains.
