In the first case the patient underwent hysteroscopy and laparoscopy5 years after the surgical termination [3].
When uterine perforation is suspected based on an abnormal finding in the retrieved material, although rare, tubal incarcerationmust be considered—especially because it can be relatively asymp-tomatic. Prompt diagnosis may lead to preservation of the incarcer-ated tube.

This tactic is aimed at increasing the pregnancy rate and reducing the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome; however, Received in revised form 1 September 2009Accepted 5 October 2009 rescuing a prior corpus luteum, which may result in the prematureelevation of progesterone levels during ovulation induction, could be detrimental to IVF outcome by reducing endometrial receptivity and interfering with follicle development [3]. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate whether rhCG administration on the first day of menses promoted corpus luteum rescue and to determine the frequency of suchrescue.
Thirty women—all of whom signed approved Institutional Review Recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin (rhCG) can be admin- Board consent forms—were included in the present retrospective istered during the late follicular phase of ovulation induction to promote analysis.
