dc.description.abstractPhases II and III of the human in vitro fertilization programme at Tygerberg Hospital are presented. In phase II, 42 laparoscopies were performed and oocytes were obtained from 76% of the follicles aspirated, but with a fertilization rate of only 37%. The viable pregnancy rate per embryo transfer was 4%. Important changes took place in the programme, which led to a fertilization rate of 77% in phase III. Of the 78 patients subjected to laparoscopy, 65 (83%) reached the embryo transfer stage, resulting in a clinical pregnancy rate per embryo transfer of 23%, and with a 19% pregnancy rate per laparoscopy. The changes, methods and results of phases II and III are discussed.en_ZA
