Pelvic schistosomiasis and infertility.

S El-Mahgoub.   

Abstract

The use of laparoscopy allowed us to diagnose asymptomatic pelvic schistosomiasis in 13 infertile women. The lesion was associated with dense pelvic adhesions in all cases, a defective luteal phase in 23.1% of the women and anovulation in 15.4%. Atraumatic adnexolysis, antibilharzial treatment and correction of ovulatory defects were followed by intrauterine pregnancy in 46% of the patients.
