Edmond Confinio, lead author of the study, said the procedure could reduce by two-thirds the cost of treating women with blockages, who now usually choose between microsurgery or test-tube fertilization.
New technique provides hope for women fighting infertility
But one surgeon not involved in the study said he believed the technique would offer no significant advantage in preparation to clear blocked fallopian tubes.
CHICAGO — A new device is helping infertile women become pregnant by opening their blocked ovules with a balloon, doctors reported.
The Associated Press
The technique is similar to the use of balloons to open the clogged arteries of heart patients.
The balloon is mounted on a flexible tube called a catheter and threaded through the womb into one of the fallopian tubes, which connect the uterus to the ovaries. Once the fetus is delivered, doctors inflate it to open the passage.
The procedure requires neither surgery nor general anesthesia, said Ilan Tur-Kaspa, a doctor and author of a study documenting the tech-
nique's success. He said the results offered hope of pregnancy for perhaps a tenth of the approximately 1 million women with blocked fallopian tubes.
The device is designed to treat proximal tubal occlusion, which is blockage of a tube near the point where it enters the uterus. Ten percent of the million women with blocked tubes have this type, said Tur-Kaspa of Mount Sinai Hospital Medical Center in Chicago.
The device isn't designed to treat the much more common distal tubal occlusion, which is blockage farther up the tubes where they pick up the egg from the ovary. This type afflicts 90 percent of the women with blocked
The balloon device and the technique, called transervical balloon tuboplasty, is awaiting Food and Drug Administration approval. In the meantime, patients with two tubes in about 135 of 150 women, and about 45 conceived, Confoined.
Superman proposes to Lois Lane
The Associated Press
"They've played games long enough," "Superman" editor Michael Carlin said Monday. "This story had to happen."
NEW YORK — After a half century of avoiding commitment as if it were kryptomite, Superman has popped the question to Lois Larson, and she said
No wedding date was announced,

The Man of Steel proposes as mild-
ly as possible. Mr. Cunningham, who

of "Superman" comics, is unaware of his true identity.
For example, Kent, a native of Smallville Kan., and Miss Lane, of Queensland Park, Metropolis, are both Pulitzer Prize winners and published novelists. Kent writes a syndicated column.
Superman asks for Miss Lane's hand after he is exposed to red kryptonite, loses his super powers and can finally be a normal life.

Miss Lane, who for years barely tolerated Clark and had a crush on Superman, has recently come to see her as the best she's ever needed when she needs him, DC Comics said.
