Transport of novel ovum surrogates in the human fallopian tube: a clinical study.

Functional inadequacy of the fallopian tube cannot be adequately diagnosed by classical tubal patency tests. A new method using novel ova surrogates, microspheres transport test, is designed to diagnose dysfunctional tubal sterility. Biodegradable test microspheres with diameters matching that of the native ovum were used. According to the optimum procedure, the suspension of test microspheres was applied through the vaginal wall into the Douglas' space under local anesthesia, and the transported microspheres were collected in a modified cervical cap. The microspheres were readily identified in the sediment of cervical secretion by their fluorescence. The method was tested in 139 long-term infertility patients. Transport was observed in 100% of the control group, and positive correlation between the transport findings and the anticipated frequencies of dysfunctional tubal sterility cases in other groups was found. Optimum diameter of test microspheres was estimated at about 175 microns. The test appears to be useful for examination of functional disorders of the ovum transport in human practice.

[Laparoscopic tubal coagulation--technic and follow-up results].

This report presents 155 cases of laparoscopic electrocoagulation of the fallopian tubes. 53 coagulations were performed with unipolar devices, 102 ones with bipolar technique.--The patency of tubal obliteration was tested 12 weeks after the operation hysterosalpingographically.--In 4 cases the contrast medium was forced through the obliterated part of the fallopian tube, but controlled a half year later the tubes are completely closed. Hysterosalpingographic studies are not suited to criticize the reliability of laparoscopic sterilization. Severe operative and early postoperative complications were not to be seen.--The laparoscopic bipolar coagulation of the fallopian tubes is a method without the high of electric accidents. There is a great efficacy in producing sterility.
