Objective: This research was aimed to explore the role of interventional embolization in hydrosalpin resulting from In Vitro Fertilization and Embryo Transfer (IVF-ET). Methods: From 2013 to 2016, 130 patients were treated with IVF-ET in which 75 were treated with fallopian tube embolization followed by IVF-ET while others received IVF-ET without other treatments. Age, basal Estradiol (E2) valu...

BACKGROUND Single embryo transfer (SET) after IVF/ICSI has been shown to result in an acceptable pregnancy rate in selected subjects. In our unit, SET is routinely carried out among women under the age of 36 in the first or second treatment cycle when a top-quality embryo is available. In order to define further the selection criteria for SET, we have analysed the outcome of elective SET (eSET)...

Background To compare a flexible, multi-dose GnRH antagonist protocol with a long GnRH .agonist protocol in poor respo MaterialsAndMethods A randomized clinical trial of 70 poor responder patients (35 patients in GnRH antagonist protocol and 35 patients in long GnRH agonist protocol) was performed at Royan Institute, Tehran, Iran. Both groups were given a fixed dose of human menopausal gonadotr...

Introduction The incidence of acute appendicitis in pregnancy is 1:2000 (1:700 ÷ 3000); 60% suffer from acute appendicitis in the first half of pregnancy. When perforated appendicitis complicated by diffuse peritonitis, maternal mortality rate reaches 16.7%, with perinatal loss in the 19,4-50%. Explainable limitation application of instrumental diagnostic methods at different stages of pregnanc...

background: controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (coh) in conjunction with intrauterine inseminations (iui) are commonly used to treat infertile couples. in this study we evaluated the relationship between iui outcome and special causes of infertility. we also aimed to examine parameters that might predict success following iui. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional study, we included 9...

cumulative embryo score (ces) is one of the many embryo scoring methods which have been developed to help clinicians to transfer high quality embryos and predict pregnancy rate in assisted reproductive techniques (art) cycles. regarding the existing difference in ces calculation this study was done to compare two methods in order to determine the more practical and preferable one. in a retrospe...

context in order to restore ovulation, puncturing ovaries with a needle powered by electricity, under laparoscopic observation, in women with anovulatory infertility with polycystic ovarian syndrome is called laparoscopic ovarian drilling (lod). although peri-adnexial adhesion after the surgery is inevitable, there is lack of evidence regarding the clinical significance. the objective of the pr...

OBJECTIVE To examine the clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and multiple pregnancy rate (MPR) in a large in vitro fertilisation (IVF) programme before and after the introduction of single blastocyst transfer (SBT) strategy in a selected group of women. DESIGN A 3-year pre- and postintervention study. SETTING A tertiary reproductive medicine and assisted conception unit in a London teaching hospi...
