Conservative therapy with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist for a uterine arteriovenous malformation in a patient with congenital heart disease

چکیده
Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is rare but it can cause life-threatening genital bleeding. Conservative therapy with GnRHa can be a useful option for treating a uterine AVM presenting with a congenital heart disease shunt in hemodynamically stable patients.

Spontaneous Regression of Uterine Arteriovenous Malformations with Conservative Management
Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) can cause massive hemorrhage and is often treated with uterine artery embolization (UAE), which may lead to ovarian insufficiency. Thus, avoiding UAE should be considered, particularly in women undergoing fertility treatments. We present three women diagnosed with postmiscarriage AVM on color Doppler by transvaginal ultrasound imaging. They had no genita...
متن کاملResurgence of Minimal Stimulation In Vitro Fertilization with A Protocol Consisting of Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone-Agonist Trigger and Vitrified-Thawed Embryo Transfer
Minimal stimulation in vitro fertilization (mini-IVF) consists of a gentle controlled ovarian stimulation that aims to produce a maximum of five to six oocytes. There is a misbelief that mini-IVF severely compromises pregnancy and live birth rates. An appraisal of the literature pertaining to studies on mini-IVF protocols was performed. The advantages of minimal stimulation protocols are report...

Objective The objective of this study is to compare rates of pregnancy and IVF parameters in subjects who were stimulated with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) plus either recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-LH) or human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG), in long gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist IVF protocols. MaterialsAndMethods This is a cohort study of patients undergoing IV...
متن کاملUterine arteriovenous malformation.
Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a little known condition of which, to date, very few cases have been described. It has a very diverse symptomatology, even though in most cases, it is diagnosed during a severe and acute haemorrhagic event. Its treatment can vary from expectant management to hysterectomy; however, current evidence suggests that the embolisation of uterine arteries is ...
متن کاملComparison of pregnancy outcomes of frozen embryo transfers in women undergoing artificial endometrial preparation with and without short and long-acting gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists
Background & aim: There are conflicting results regarding the benefit of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist treatment on frozen embryo transfer (FET) outcome. No study was found to compare pregnancy outcome between patients undergoing short and long acting types of GnRH agonist for FET cycles. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of short and long ac...
