Summary: | The infertility in women with an abnormal uterus seems a subject of controversy. The prognosis of in vitro fertilization among these patients with such an anomaly is even less founded. The results of in vitro fertilization have been only studied with few patients and recently. Through the literature, we will focus step by step, on the impact of uterine anomalies on natural reproduction, then the impact of metroplasty on natural reproduction, the role of anomalies on the endometrium quality and lastly, the results of Assisted Rerpoductive Techniques with women with such an anomaly. It seems that the main risk is obstetric complications such as spontaneous abortion or premature delivery, not implantation failure. However, when infertility exists, surgical treatment tends to improve the pregnancy rate for some. |
