[Study of fertility following celioscopic treatment of unruptured tubal pregnancy].
54 patients out of a series of 200 with ectopic pregnancies that were treated by laparoscopic means were followed up for more than 18 months so that post-operative fertility could be assessed. 35 have had intra-uterine pregnancy (64.8%), 3 of them after a second ectopic pregnancy treated by laparoscopy. 16 patients (29.7%) failed to conceive, four of them after a second ectopic pregnancy. 8 patients have a "solitary tube", 4 of them have had an intra-uterine pregnancy and one a second ectopic pregnancy. This results compare favorably with those obtained after a conservative management by laparotomy. History of infertility or previous ectopic pregnancy decreases the intra-uterine pregnancy rate (45.8% versus 80%, p less than 0.01).
