Obstet Gynecol. 1975 Jul;46(1):47-8. doi: 10.1097/00006250-197507000-00008.

Abstract

Besides its diagnostic value, laparoscopy is a useful operative tool in the treatment of infertility. We have used dilatation of phimotic tubal ostia and salpingolysis by laparoscopy as our primary approach. In the total series of 33 cases a pregnancy rate of 42.1 percent was obtained.
