The outcome of ZIFT and IVF-ET was compared in consecutive nontubal factor patients in a prospective fashion. Groups did not differ in characteristics and were matched by the number of prezygotes/pre-embryos transferred. Overall, implantation, pregnancy, miscarriage, and ongoing PRs were not statistically different. These results suggest that ZIFT offers no significant advantage over IVF-ET for the treatment of nontubal infertility.

D005187 Fallopian Tubes A pair of highly specialized canals extending from the UTERUS to its corresponding OVARY. They provide the means for OVUM transport from the ovaries and they are the site of the ovum's final maturation and FERTILIZATION. The fallopian tube consists of an interstitium, an isthmus, an ampulla, an infundibulum, and fimbriae. Its wall consists of three layers: serous, muscular, and an internal mucosal layer lined with both ciliated and secretory cells.
