Prediction of laparoscopic surgery outcomes in tubal infertility

This study aimed to elucidate the predictive value of hysterosalpingography (HSG) and laparoscopy (LS) scores for spontaneous pregnancy after laparoscopic surgery in 50 patients with tubal infertility. During a 1-year follow-up period, 28% of these patients became pregnant. Both scores were informative in prediction of pregnancy with the area under the ROC curve being 0.80 (95% CI 0.67-0.93) and 0.74 (95% CI 0.58-0.89) for LS and HSG scores, respectively.
