Objective: To retrospectively estimate the impact of modified laparoscopic salpingectomy on the ovarian reserve in infertile women. Methods: There were 74 infertile women undergone modified laparoscopic salpingectomy from June 2016 to January 2017, and their levels of serum antimüllerian hormone, basal follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol were reviewed retrospectively. Results: No significant change was detected in serum antimüllerian hormone at 3 months after surgery compared to preoperative level (p = 0.857). Similar changes were observed for the basal follicle-stimulating hormone (p = 0.102) and estradiol (p = 0.233) level. Conclusions: Our results revealed that modified laparoscopic salpingectomy might be a valuable treatment for hydrosalpinx before in vitro fertilization.
