    Diagnostic laparoscopy for infertility can be safely integrated into obstetrics and gynecology residency training. Emphasis on equipment care, patient selection, and precautions ensures successful outcomes in this surgical procedure.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic surgery
    • Minimally invasive procedures
    • Medical education

    Background:

    • Diagnostic laparoscopy is a key procedure for investigating infertility.
    • Training programs require safe and effective methods for teaching surgical skills.
    • Previous experience with laparoscopy varied among participating physicians.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and feasibility of diagnostic laparoscopy in a residency training program.
    • To document laparoscopic findings, complications, and challenges encountered.
    • To assess the suitability of laparoscopy for training obstetric and gynecology residents.

    Main Methods:

    • A 3-year retrospective analysis of 2650 diagnostic laparoscopy cases.
    • Procedures performed on selected infertility patients in Egypt, Sudan, and Saudi Arabia.
