Thirty patients with secondary infertility were subjected to laparoscopic adhesiolysis during the period January 1986 to February 1987 at Al-Azhar Endoscopy and Microsurgery Unit. Second look laparoscopy (SLL) was performed after a period of 9-12 months. At laparoscopy, pelvic adhesive disease was staged according to the severity of the disease and compared with the finding at SLL. Five patients defaulted, three patients (12%) became pregnant and 22 patients underwent SLL. Ten patients (45.5%) showed no recurrence of adhesions. This study suggests that laparoscopy has a role in adhesiolysis of mild and moderate adhesions and SLL provides further opportunity to relyse reformed adhesions in some cases.
