If CE affects infertile women's outcomes after surgery?
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of chronic endometritis (CE) in infertile patients and whether it affects spontaneous pregnancy after reproductive surgery in infertile patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this study, we collected clinical information on infertility patients who underwent reproductive surgery at the Reproductive Medicine Centre of the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from 2021.1 to 2022.8. All patients underwent laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery. Tubal lubrication was performed concurrently with endometrial sample collection and pathological examination. The specimens were immunohistochemically stained with CD38 and CD138, and those who tested positive at the same time were diagnosed with chronic endometritis. As of 2023.9, the patients were followed up by telephone to determine whether chronic endometritis impacted postoperative pregnancy.
OUTCOME: A total of 81 patients were finally included in the study. Of these, 25 were in the chronic endometritis group, and 56 were in the non-chronic endometritis group. There were no appreciable differences between the two groups' demographic statistics. Furthermore, neither the bilateral appendages nor the uterus's intraoperative conditions showed a statistically significant difference. Patients in the chronic endometritis group had a longer time to conception from the time of surgery (7 (6.00-11.75) vs. 10 (6.50-16.00), p = 0.467) and a lower rate of spontaneous pregnancies (8/25 = 32.00 % vs. 28/55 = 50.00 %, p = 0.132) than patients with non-chronic endometritis. Among the patients who had successful spontaneous pregnancies after surgery, approximately 77.14 % had live births and 22.86 % had miscarriages, and the live birth rate between the two groups was not significantly different. (21/28 = 75.00 % vs 7/8 = 87.50 %, p = 0.651) CONCLUSION: Chronic endometritis affects approximately 31.82% of infertile patients, and following reproductive surgery, it has no discernible impact on spontaneous pregnancy.
