  • Rationale of First-Line Endoscopy-Based Fertility Exploration Using Transvaginal Hydrolaparoscopy and Minihysteroscopy
    Human Reproduction, Vol.27, No.8 pp. 2247–2253, 2012 Advanced Access publication on June 6, 2012 doi:10.1093/humrep/des192 OPINION Rationale of first-line endoscopy-based fertility exploration using transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy and minihysteroscopy R.L. De Wilde1 and I. Brosens2,* 1Pius-Hospital, Oldenburg, Germany 2Leuven Institute for Fertility and Embryology, Leuven, Belgium Downloaded from *Correspondence address. Catholic University, Leuven, Belgium. E-mail: [email protected] abstract: The transvaginal access for exploration of tubo-ovarian function in women with unexplained infertility has been revived since http://humrep.oxfordjournals.org/ transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy (THL) was introduced in 1998. One prospective double-blind trial and several reviews have validated the diagnostic value of THL in comparison with laparoscopy for the exploration of women with unexplained infertility. A review of the recent literature confirms the efficacy and safety of the technique for first-line endoscopy-based exploration of fertility. The standard policy of 1-year delay for laparoscopic investigation in unexplained infertility is challenged. In older women and particularly in women experienced in fertility awareness methods, THL and minihysteroscopy can be performed after a waiting period of 6–12 months.

This is the case of transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy vary in large scale and may be atypical. Gastroenterologic (THL) which proved its efficiency while being as precise as standard problems, urinary tract infections, and other gynecologic diagnosis laparoscopy. problems may simulate PID.
