Résumé : The scientific and clinical activities of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology have involved the three main subdivisions: the gynecological surgery, the obstetrics and fetal medicine, the endocrinology and the reproductive medicine. Minimal invasive surgery including laser assisted laparoscopy or robotic assisted surgery has been particularly developed. Endometriosis, a frequent and sometimes particularly invasive disease, and oncologic surgeries have been developed in collaboration with the digestive surgery department. The department has also contributed to the comprehension and treatment of prenatal pathologies such as premature labor and deliveries or the gestational diabetes. The department has supported the development of techniques to study the fetal well-being in utero: the prenatal echography, the chorionic villous sampling, the amniotic puncture or the cordocentesis for prenatal genetic diagnosis or fetal infectious contaminations, the CMV transmission more specifically. In endocrinology and reproductive medicine, the department has mainly developed the in vitro fertilization techniques. The prolonged embryo culture, the study of preimplantation embryo metabolism, the preimplantation genetic diagnosis and the cryopreservation of ovarian fragments to preserve fertility in women undergoing oncologic treatments represent the more recent developed topics. Finally, the security of viral transmission in assisted procreation and the treatment of these patients with chronic viral diseases (Hepatitis C or HIV) are another domain with important scientific activity.
