Fertility following adnexal surgery
Abstract:
A total of 154 patients after adnexal operations between 1969-1973 were queried in order to establish fertility rate after operation. Out of the 154 questioned 122 submitted their reply. i.e. 69.2 per cent. These women were divided into three groups. The first one comprised 46 patients operated because of extrauterine pregnancy, the second consisted of 50 patients operated because of ovarian cyst and the third one included 18 women operated because of bilateral adnexal pathology. In the first group 90 per cent of the patients who desired so succeeded to become pregnant. In the second group 87 per cent succeeded and 66.6 per cent in the third group. The possible ethyological factors of sterility after adnexal operations were discussed and conservative operations were proposed as the most convenient policy in cases of bilateral adnexal pathology.
