The value of repeat hysteroscopic evaluation in patients with failed in vitro fertilization transfer cycles

One hundred ten women with normal initial hysteroscopy who failed to conceive during three or more IVF-ET cycles underwent repeat hysteroscopic evaluation. In 20 patients (18.2%), visualization revealed uterine abnormalities, mainly newly added endometrial lesions, i.e., hyperplasia, polyps, endomet...

Zusammenfassung:	One hundred ten women with normal initial hysteroscopy who failed to conceive during three or more IVF-ET cycles underwent repeat hysteroscopic evaluation. In 20 patients (18.2%), visualization revealed uterine abnormalities, mainly newly added endometrial lesions, i.e., hyperplasia, polyps, endometritis, and synechiae. Our results indicate that repeat hysteroscopic evaluation, in cases of recurrent IVF-ET failure, is an important adjunctive method for further evaluating and possibly optimizing the IVF-ET procedure.
