[Direct intraperitoneal insemination. Authors' experience].

We present our experience with the method of Direct Intraperitoneal Insemination (DIPI) in cases of infertility during 56 cycles with ovarian stimulation in 15 women 53.3% of our cases are primary sterility cases. The principal indication for DIPI was male factor (six cases), endometriosis three cases, cervical hostility, three cases and compound cases the other ones. The average age was 33.7% years. Always we used the induction of ovulation according to the protocol of Frydman with clinical monitorization. The seminal fluid was treated with the swim-up method and was placed in the pelvic peritoneum with a spinal needle by direct transvaginal puncture, during the ovulatory period. We have obtained five pregnancies (33.3%) one of them ectopic (6.66). We have been successful in all cases of cervical hostility and in one case of compound etiology. There are no complications in this series with DIPI. It is discussed the place of DIPI among the technology of assisted fertilization.

Tooth loss in 1535 treated periodontal patients.

Of 1535 treated recall patients surveyed over an average time of 12.9 years since treatment was completed, 1371 had lost no teeth from periodontal disease. The total number of teeth lost was 444, with the average tooth loss for the 1535 patients being 0.29. In the three full arch splinted cases, the loss rate was 14.67 teeth per patient. Patients treated without any excisional or flap surgical procedures made up 26.5% of those surveyed, whereas 73.5% had required various surgical procedures. No attempt was made to compare different pocket therapy procedures. Although many patients developed recurrent periodontal problems during recall, only 15.9% of the 1535 patients required surgical retreatment. Teeth that were originally given a doubtful prognosis often were responsible for recurrent problems and sometimes required extraction.
