Two-year Experience with Gamete Intrafallopian Trans fer (GIFT) at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital

Abstract

This article describes twenty patients who underwent gamete intrafallo pain transfer ( GIFT) at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital during a two-year period. The details of this technique are described. The pregnancy rate, as defined by a rising of B-hCG titer on two occasions at least 2 days apart, was 31.8% per treatment cycle, but the clinical pregnancy rate was only 27.4% per cycle. This technique could become an alternative to in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF & ET) in infertile women who have at least one patent fallopian tube.
