Abstrakt:	Objective: To evaluate the effect of serum from infertile women with endometriosis on fertilization and embryonic development in a murine IVF model. Design: Pretreatment and post-treatment comparison of murine oocyte fertilization and early embryonic development with the addition of serum supplements from infertile women with endometriosis. Setting: Tertiary care academic medical center. Patients: Sera from 10 fertile women without endometriosis and 28 infertile women with endometriosis both before and after laser laparoscopy. Results: When compared with serum from fertile women, serum from infertile women with endometriosis inhibited fertilization rates (51% versus 81%) and subsequent embryonic development rates (46% versus 79%). The inhibitory effect was greater as the stage of endometriosis increased. Treatment of endometriosis by laser laparoscopy improved both fertilization (51% versus 56%) and early embryonic development rates (46% versus 58%). Conclusions: Serum from infertile women with endometriosis inhibits both fertilization and early embryonic development in the murine IVF model. Inhibition of fertilization and early embryonic development rates increases as the stage of endometriosis increases. Improved fertilization and early embryonic development rates are observed after treatment of endometriosis by laser laparoscopy.
