A study of hysteroscopic metroplasty in 141 women with a septate uterus.

141 patients who had a hysteroscopic septum resection of a partial uterine septum (class Vb, American Society for Reproductive Medicine, ASRM) were divided into two groups: Group I (69 patients) presented with infertility and Group II (72 patients) with recurrent abortion. The mean+/-SD post-operative follow up period was 36+/-19.5 months. Thiry-six Group I patients (52.1%) and 38 Group II patients (52.7%) achieved pregnancy, with respective abortion rates of 20% and 25%.
