Those with previous abdominal surgery should be carefully assessed, if necessary with prepregnancy laparoscopy, to evaluate adhesions.

The incidence of wound infection ranged from 0% to 10% in the laparoscopy groups and from 2.7% to 14.3% in the open groups.
Production of transgenic goats by pronuclear microinjection of in vitro produced zygotes from oocytes recovered by laparoscopy.
