“…Sterility is experienced as a real drama for the spouses who are unable to conceive a child naturally way [13]. The woman's age is an important factor, due to the significant decrease in fertility after the age of 35 years, much aggravated after 40 years [14]. In our study the average age of patients was 33 years.…”

Female infertility is considered as a real obstacle to the development of a couple who cannot conceive in a natural way. The aim of this study is to evaluate female infertility using two complementary methods of exploration: hystero-laparoscopy and endometrial biopsy, to compare histopathological data with those of hystero-laparoscopy findings in the same patients, and finally assess the interest to couple both methods to detect a greater number of pathologies. Our prospective study included 64 patients aged 20 -43 years with primary or secondary infertility for a period of 3 years ranging from 2012 to 2015 at obstetrics and gynecology department in which all patients were admitted to a hysteroscopy followed by laparoscopy. Endometrial biopsy curettage was performed and sent to the Pathological Anatomy Department for a histopathological study. On 64 infertile women explored, no pathologies were findings in 20 patients (31.3%) to the biopsy and 27 patients (42.2%) by hysteroscopy-laparoscopy. Histopathological study was in favor of dysfunctional endometrium (50%) followed by hyperplasia (10.9%). The lesions findings in the hystero-laparoscopy were in the first place uterine (18.8%) followed by equally between tubal and endometrial pathologies (10.9%). Associated diseases affecting the same organs or more were recorded with a percentage of 7.8%. The two methods have been shown effective and the most of common pathologies findings were uterine and endometrial. We concluded that the endometrial biopsy was more decisive in the exploration of endometrium pathologies while hystero-laparos-* Corresponding author. N.

It is more interesting to systematically couple the histology with endoscopic examination in order to detect a greater number of pathologies.

“…The pressure of the contrast product allowed a spontaneous unblocking of 6 tubes, which revives the debate on the limits of hysterosalpingography in terms of detection of proximal tubal obstructions. False positives are attributed to it in proportions ranging from 15% to 32% in relation to the existence of mucous plugs but also cornual spasms caused by pain on injection of the contrast product [16] [17] [18].…”

“…[23] It is readily available, inexpensive, noninvasive, radiation-free, relatively less time consuming, and easily repeatable. Limitations include subjective errors, limited field of view, interference by obesity or by gaseous bowel loops, suboptimal visualization of fallopian tubes and broad ligament, failure to delineate small ovaries, and inability to obtain images in the surgical plane.…”

“…Though it is noninvasive and radiation-free, it has limited availability and high cost, and hence cannot be repeated easily. [23] Longer examination time, failure to delineate sub-centimeter uterine lesions, and inability to characterize endometriomas at some stages are other limitations. MRI is contraindicated in patients with cardiac pacemakers and cochlear implants.…”
