Publication/Presentation Date

Abstract

Ovarian drilling is a laparoscopic treatment for polycystic ovary syndrome. As with wedge resection, it is unclear why women with this syndrome ovulate after the procedure. Studies describing the clinical response of over 600 patients to this treatment have appeared in the medical literature. Attention to detailed steps can guide experienced laparoscopic surgeons to apply this technique to appropriate patients who are experiencing infertility due to polycystic ovary disease.
