[Hysteroplasty in 1986. Technics and indications]

Hysteroplasty described by Bret in 1959 represents the procedure of choice in cases of bifid uterus with infertility secondary to repeated interruptions of pregnancy or complicated deliveries. This technique, of which we will remind the main steps, gives excellent results as demonstrated in a joint series from the Gynecological and Obstetrical Clinics of Hopital Edouard Herriot. In view of these good results, it seems that the indications of hysteroplasty should be broader than before in order to prevent the risks inherent in repeated interruptions of pregnancy and complicated deliveries.
