title: Transcervical salpingoplasty: current techniques and results.
abstract: In the last five years angio-interventional techniques have been applied to the recanalization of proximally occluded fallopian tubes in infertile women. The reported technical success of 90% and subsequent pregnancies in up to 54% of patients has led to considerable interest in this technique. This article will discuss current methodologies and review the reported results of this procedure.
