Early ovum and embryo loss after microsurgical anastomosis of the rabbit oviduct.
After resection and reanastomosis, ovum recovery and fertilization were studied in the rabbit oviduct. From these data the ovum and embryo loss was calculated. Loss was most pronounced in ampullary operated tubes and after a short recovery period.
