Description
Summary:Background It remains almost a helpless situation for the recurrent implantation failure and pregnancy loss caused by endometrial injury at present. The purpose of this study was to develop a rabbit model of endometrial mechanical injury that could provide a research platform for this difficult clinical predicament. Methods Three experiments were conducted. Experiment 1： Curettages in both uterus horns and copper wire inserting after curettage （double-injury） in one horn. The histological changes were monitored at 0, 24, 48, 72 hours, as well as in 1 and 2 weeks after operation. Experiment 2： Direct copper wire inserting in one horn and double-injury in other horn. The wires in both horns were removed after 2 weeks.
