Gamete intra-fallopian transfer (GIFT): a new technique for the treatment of unexplained infertility.

The Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT) was carried out in 12 couples with unexplained infertility, in 2 cases with infertility associated with mild endometriosis, in 1 case of hostile mucus and 3 cases in which phymosis of the ampulla and/or periadnexal adhesions were previously identified. In 7 couples GIFT was carried out after several AID cycles for husband azoospermia or severe oligospermia. Three different protocols were used for the controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. In all cases an adequate follicular growth was obtained and mature oocytes were recovered. At first attempt 12 ongoing pregnancies (1 triplet, 1 twin) were obtained with a present pregnancy rate of 48%.

Monitoring of follicular growth for I.V.F.-E.T. programme: the value of E2 assay and echography.

The possibility of a correlation between biological (E2) and morphological (U.S.) parameters, in view of obtaining a correct prevision of follicular maturation and ovulation is discussed. In this study normal patients with a tubal sterility were treated with clomiphene citrate and clomiphene plus H.M.G. The statistical analysis was performed by means of the linear correlation (r) and the relative test of significance (Student T.). The data obtained in this study show that notwithstanding that the rising plasma concentration of E2, which precedes ovulation, is the first and more constant marker of follicular maturation, because of its wide range of variability its usefulness in prediction of ovulation is nearly limited to spontaneous cycles. In fact in stimulated cycles the rising plasma-E2 concentration is rather an independent variable regarding the growth of single follicles (F.D.).
