Serum concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) were measured in patients with pregnancy-related gynaecologic emergencies including ectopic pregnancy (n = 124) and intrauterine abortion (n = 40). The results were compared with those in normal pregnancy (n = 136) and non-pregnant women (n = 460). In ectopic pregnancy and intrauterine abortion, the PAPP-A levels were lower ...

background: the value of serial measurement of serum ß subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (ßhcg) and ultrasonography in the early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy has well established. objective: the objective of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of raising level of serum ßhcg, single measurement of progesterone (p) and estradiol (e2) in early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. mat...

Heterotopic pregnancy is rare under natural circumstance (conception). We report the first case of heterotopic pregnancy in spontaneous conception with four previous caesarean sections and ruptured tubal ectopic with resultant successful normal intra-uterine pregnancy delivered at term after salpingectomy. A 32-year-old gravida 5 para 4+0 with 3 living children, with 4 previous caesarean sectio...

background: despite major advances in assisted reproductive techniques, the implantation rates remain relatively low. some studies have demonstrated that intrauterine infusion of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (g-csf) improves implantation in infertile women. objective: to assess the g-csf effects on ivf outcomes in women with normal endometrial thickness. materials and methods : in this...

background: although intrauterine insemination (iui) is one of the most common methods which is used for male factor and unexplained infertility the relative influence of various semen parameters on the likelihood of a successful outcome is controversial. several semen parameters have been evaluated as predictors of a successful outcome with intrauterine insemination. objective: to evaluate the...

background: ectopic pregnancy is one of the pathologic entities that it destroys the fallopian tube and impairs the future pregnancy. there are different medical and surgical therapies in order the treatment and reserve of fertility. the aim of this report is discuss a case of successful intrauterine after management of ectopic pregnancy with local injection of kcl in an infertile pcod patient....

Heterotopic pregnancy is rare in natural conception and most often presents as life threatening emergency like acute abdomen and hemorrhagic shock. In early unruptured stages, it presents nonspecifically, mimicking normal or abnormal pregnancy manifestations. A high index of suspicion and a definitive search for it even after confirming normal intrauterine gestation is needed. This little effor...
