    Ahmed Mahmoud Abdou* and Moustafa Taha Abdelfattah

    Objective: To assess the reproductive outcome after hysteroscopic septal resection in women with unexplained infertility or recurrent miscarriage. 

    Design: Prospective clinical trial. 

    Setting: Zagazig university hospitals, Egypt.

    Patients: 47 patients (20 patients with primary infertility and 27 patients with recurrent miscarriage diagnosed to have uterine septum) 

    Intervention: hysteroscopic septal resection. 

    Main outcome measures: pregnancy rate and its outcome (miscarriage, preterm birth, term birth and live-birth rates). 

    Results: There was significant improvement in reproductive outcome in patients with primary infertility and uterine septum after hysteroscopic metroplasty; pregnancy rate was 55% (11 pregnancies out of 20 patients). Abortion and preterm labor rates were low (5 and 10% respectively) while term delivery and live-birth rates were high (40 and 45% respectively).
