[Experimental study of the permeability of the fallopian tubes in the rabbit after division of the isthmus and microsurgical anastomosis (author's transl)]. 1979

J Barbot, and J B Dubuisson, and J Santarelli

The poor results of traditional reconstructive surgery of the Fallopian tubes have led the authors to try the possibilities of microsurgery in tubal sterility. The experimental animal chosen was the rabbit owing to its similarities with the Fallopian tube in women. After division of the isthumus, the tube was repermeabilised with a 10.0 single nylon thread under the operating microscope. A series of 11 rabbits were then coupled one mont after the operation. The pregnancy rate was 55%. This figure was much better than those obtained in the literature by non-microsurgical technics. One may hope to improve the results further by less traumatic surgery, better asepsis, and better control of fertility.

D008866	Microsurgery	The performance of surgical procedures with the aid of a microscope.
D011247	Pregnancy	The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.	Gestation,Pregnancies
D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

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.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013243	Sterilization Reversal	Procedures to reverse the effect of REPRODUCTIVE STERILIZATION and to regain fertility. Reversal procedures include those used to restore the flow in the FALLOPIAN TUBE or the VAS DEFERENS.
