title: [Pelviscopic salpingostomy with everted suture].
abstract: From 1987 to 1990 pelvioscopic distal salpingostomy was performed in 47 patients at the University Hospital of Kiel. The tubal mucosa was everted and fixed with 4/0 PDS sutures. 35 patients (74%) responded to a questionnaire 2-4 years after surgery. A bilateral salpingostomy had been performed in 16 of these 35 cases, while the contralateral tube was either absent or intramurally occluded in 19 cases. Eight patients (23%) postoperatively had an intrauterine pregnancy, five patients gave birth to a healthy child, one patient was pregnant at time of follow-up. Three patients had abortions and three experienced a tubal pregnancy of one or both sides. Compared to the endoscopic procedure with the CO2 laser pelvioscopic salpingostomy with an everted suture represents an equally suited alternative.
