title: Pregnancy after fimbriectomy reversal: results of microsurgery augmented by gamete intrafallopian tube transfer and embryo transfer.
abstract: In this study, fimbriectomy reversal resulted in a 43% intrauterine PR and a fecundability of 6.6%. The cumulative PR and the fecundability were 57% and 7.8%, respectively, when microsurgery was augmented by GIFT and embryo cryopreservation during the same treatment cycle and by subsequent embryo thaw and transfer.
