Operative laparoscopy is a key surgical approach for treating infertility. This review updates its use in tubal disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome, endometriosis, and assisted reproduction.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive medicine
  • Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery

Background:

  • Infertility affects a significant portion of the reproductive-age population.
  • Surgical interventions are crucial for specific causes of infertility.
  • Operative laparoscopy offers diagnostic and therapeutic benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an updated review on the application of operative laparoscopy in infertility management.
  • To discuss the efficacy of laparoscopic procedures for various gynecological conditions contributing to infertility.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies and clinical guidelines.
  • Analysis of laparoscopic surgical techniques for tubal disease, PCOS, and endometriosis.
  • Evaluation of laparoscopy's role in conjunction with assisted reproduction technologies.
