Term pregnancy after fallopian tube transposition.
A 23-year-old woman suffered from primary sterility because of congenital malformation of the uterus and tubes. There was a left unicornuate uterus. The left ovary and the isthmic and ampullary parts of the right tube were missing. Microsurgical transposition of the left tube was performed successfully. Our technique may encourage microsurgeons to use transposition of fallopian tube in cases in which only one tube and one ovary on contralateral sides are available.
