ABSTRACT
Postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis has been thought to be a rare disease of which clinical finding is not accurate. Most of postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis presents as symptoms consisting of fever, lower abdominal pain, abdominal mass. If the symptom does not response even with intravenous antibiotics therapy or diagnosis is inaccurate, a ultrasound or a CT scan should be obtained for diagnosis. We report a case of postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis after cesarean section diagnosed and treated, with a brief review of literatures.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether the rate of early mouse embryonal development could be enhanced by cumulus cell coculture in vitro. METHODS: Ham's F-10 culture media supplemented with 0.4% bovine serum albumin were used. Two-cell F1 mouse embryos were cultured in media with or without cumulus cells of female ICR mouse embryo for 96 hours, and the rates of embryonal development were observed and compared. RESULTS: The percentage of hatched blastocyst in the coculture group was significantly higher than that in the control group by 87.3% vs 64.8% respectively (p< 0.05). CONCLUSION: This study provides confirmative information that cumulus cell coculture will be useful in enhancing early mouse embryonal development.
