Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to determine whether laparoscopy is necessary in patients with infertility showing bilateral tubal patency on hysterosalpingography (HSG). Methods: One hundred and eight women 5 years duration was the only independent factor contributing to the reduced pregnancy rate in the laparoscopy group (HR, 0.64; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.40- 0.96). The cumulative live birth rates were 75.9% for the IVF group and 62.2% for the laparoscopy group (P=0.03). Conclusions: In women with bilateral tubal patency observed on HSG, laparoscopy may be omitted if IVF-ET is the subsequent treatment of choice, particularly in women with infertility of >5 years duration |
