Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Minimally Invasive Gynecological Procedures

Context:

  • Infertility diagnosis often requires multiple invasive procedures.
  • There is a need for cost-effective and patient-friendly diagnostic tools.

Purpose:

  • To introduce and evaluate fertiloscopy as a first-line infertility diagnostic technique.
  • To compare the diagnostic quality and cost-effectiveness of fertiloscopy against traditional methods.

Summary:

  • Fertiloscopy is a novel diagnostic technique integrating culdoscopy, dye-test, salpingoscopy, and hysteroscopy using a specialized disposable kit.
  • It serves as an alternative first-level procedure for infertility diagnosis, maintaining high diagnostic quality.
  • This method effectively limits the need for pelviscopy to strictly indicated cases.

Impact:

  • Fertiloscopy enhances diagnostic efficiency and reduces healthcare costs by minimizing operating room utilization and personnel involvement.
  • It decreases surgical risks, leading to improved patient compliance and acceptance.
  • This technique represents a significant advancement in minimally invasive infertility diagnostics.
