Ultrastructure of endosalpingeal biopsies in infertile patients: correlation with reproductive success
1988
Abstract We calculated the percentage of ciliated cells (PCC) in salpingeal microbiopsies of 41 patients with tubal infertility and ampullary microbiopsies of 36 fertile women, using the planimetric method at 500–1000 x at the scanning electron microscope. No relation was found between PCC and fertility after surgery. Thus normal ciliation does not seem to be essential for reproductive success and other factors such as the state of preservation of the tubal wall may be important.
