title: [Experimental study of the permeability of the fallopian tubes in the rabbit after division of the isthmus and microsurgical anastomosis (author's transl)].
abstract: The poor results of traditional reconstructive surgery of the Fallopian tubes have led the authors to try the possibilities of microsurgery in tubal sterility. The experimental animal chosen was the rabbit owing to its similarities with the Fallopian tube in women. After division of the isthumus, the tube was repermeabilised with a 10.0 single nylon thread under the operating microscope. A series of 11 rabbits were then coupled one mont after the operation. The pregnancy rate was 55%. This figure was much better than those obtained in the literature by non-microsurgical technics. One may hope to improve the results further by less traumatic surgery, better asepsis, and better control of fertility.
