OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to assess fertility outcome and obstetrical prognosis of 63 patients after hysteroscopic section of uterine septa. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study about 63 patients consulting for septate uterus and repeated pregnancy loss or abnormal fetal presentation between January 1988 and December 1996 in La Conception hospital in Marseille. Septal lysis was performed with microscissors or resectoscope. Statistical analysis was performed using the CHI2-test. RESULTS: The anatomical result was considered satisfactory in 57.1% of cases. Forty-five pregnancies were obtained, two after an IVF-program in 56 patients. Twenty-eight living children were born: twenty-six at term. Twenty patients delivered normally. Two women are still pregnant. Obstetrical prognosis of these patients is statistically improved by the treatment (P=0.001). CONCLUSION: Obstetrical prognosis of patients presenting repeated pregnancy loss and septate uterus is statistically improved by hysteroscopic metroplasty.
