Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology : the Journal of the Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology 2005 Februrary
This review summarises the 70 pregnancies reported following endometrial ablation by various techniques, including a those in a case report from the authors' own experience. Thirty-one viable pregnancies resulted, with a high proportion of complications. These included a perinatal mortality rate of 12.9% (4 cases), and an overall prematurity rate of 42%, which reduced to 31% after excluding iatrogenic deliveries performed for other complications. Eight (26%) cases had a morbidly adherent placenta and a further two cases required a manual removal of placenta. Seven (39%) of the term births were reported as having malpresentations and 71% of the total births were by caesarean section. The complications are discussed and a comparison is made with Asherman's Syndrome. In addition, the various factors that may be relevant to fertility after endometrial ablation are discussed.
