ABSTRACT

Background: Multiple pregnancies are the main complication associated to assisted reproduction, due to the transfer of more than one embryo. Embryo cryopre-servation allows the sequential transfer of all generated embryos, thus diminishing the risk of multiple pregnancies. However, it leads to accumulation of cryopreserved embryos. To reduce their accumulation in our unit, we started to preserve embryos as blastocysts, that have a rate of successful pregnancies of approximately 40%. Aim: To perform a sensitivity analysis of this change of policy on the accumulation of embryos. Material and Methods: Records of 571 cycles of in vitro fertilization since 2007 were reviewed, assuming a transference rate of two embryos in women aged less than 35 years and three embryos in older women. The number of embryos that would be preserved as zygotes, eight cell stage or blastocysts, was analyzed. Results: Multiple component logistic regression analysis showed a 20% reduction in the odds ratio of cryopreservation per year of age. There was a 95% reduction in the ratio, when comparing the preservation of third and first day embryos and a 99% reduction when comparing preservation of embryos in blastocyst stage and first day embryos. Conclusions: Cryopreservation at blastocyst stage effectively decreased the frequency of embryo cryopreservation.

ABSTRACT

We report the first successful live birth after the transfer of embryos obtained by fertilization of vitrified oocytes. A couple with primary infertility due to teratozoospermy and chronic an ovulation decided to undergo assisted reproductive technology after 4 failed cycles of super ovulation and intrauterine insemination. The woman underwent a standard luteal phase agonist protocol, with controlled ovarian hyper stimulation with daily 150IU recombinant gonadotropin and 75IU urinary gonadotropin for 12 days. Due to the high risk of ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome the couple was advised to delay embryo transfer. Eighteen mature oocytes were recovered, eight were vitrified and 10 fertilized and cryopreserved as pro-nuclei. Two months later, four vitrified oocytes were thawed, and three morphologically-normal embryos were transferred to an estrogen-progesterone-primed uterus, obtaining triple clinical pregnancy. The pregnancy was uneventful until 32 weeks of amenorrhea, when pre-term delivery started. After inducing lung maturity, a cesarean section was performed and three healthy fetuses were delivered. Nowadays, the babies are two and a half years old, and have had a normal psycho-motor development.

ABSTRACT

Os autores fazem uma análise prospectiva de 77 casos de fertilizaçao assistida (GIFT, ZIFT e IVF) distribuídos de forma randomizada para suporte da fase lútea com HCG (2000 UI nos dias 3, 6, 9 e 12 após a aspiraçao folicular) ou progesterona natural (5Omg, injeçao diária durante 14 dias). Nessa análise observaram taxas de gravidez, de implantaçao, de abortamento, níveis hormonais e complicaçoes com ênfase à hiperestimulaçao ovariana. A comparaçao entre os dois grupos nao mostrou diferença com relaçao às taxas de gravidez, implantaçao e abortamento. A incidência de prenhez ectópica e múltipla também nao foi diferente. No entanto, os níveis de estrogênio e progesterona nos dias 8 e 12, após a aspiraçao folicular, foi estatisticamente superior no grupo do HCG. Observamos uma incidência aumentada de hiperestimulaçao ovariana no grupo do HCG, demonstrando que o uso dessa medicaçao para suporte da fase lútea deve obedecer a critérios rigorosos a serem ainda melhor definidos.

ABSTRACT

Os autores apresentam os resultados obtidos em 14 casos de FIV e três casos de GIFT. Todas as pacientes haviam sido estimuladas anteriormente por diferentes indutores e estavam catalogas no grupo de resposta pobre. Foi usado um protocolo onde o análogo LH-RH, acetato de leuprolide, começou a ser administrado na fase lútea do ciclo anterior. Este protocolo foi comparado com um grupo controle em que foi utilizado o citrato de clomifene e hMG. Foram obtidas três gestaçöes no grupo tratado com acetato de leuprolide. A análise dos resultados mostra que o uso deste análogo na induçäo dos casos de Reproduçäo Assistida é extremamente útil, pois o número de oócitos e o índice de fertilizaçäo säo maiores

ABSTRACT

El GIFT es una técnica nueva para el tratamiento de la esterilidad cuando han fallado otros métodos convencionales y que puede convertirse en una alternativa a la IVF-ET cuando al menos una de las trompas de Falopio es permeable. Esta técnica consiste en la colocación de oocitos y esperematozoides en la porción ampular de la trompa. Los trabajos experimentales se han llevado a cabo en 25 monos rheseus divididos en 2 grupos, 20 ( Grupo I) recibieron hormonas menopáusicas humanas para la estimulación del desarrollo folicular y 5 (Grupo II) sirvieron de grupo de control sin estimulación hormonal. Todos los animales fueron sometidos a laparotomía para realizar la técnica GIFT. Se obtuvieron 6 embarazos (1 gemelar) que terminaron en 1 parto a término y 6 abortos espontáneos( 1 en el 2 tercio el embarazo). La fase clínica del GIFT se efectuó en 117 pacientes distribuidas en 5 series. Se estimuló el desarrollo folicular con citrato de clomifeno, gonadotropina coriónica humana con control diario a base de ultrasonido y determinaciones séricas de estradiol. La aspiración folicular se realizó cuando se obtuvieron 2 folículos mayores de 16 mm U:S o 700 pg/ml de estradiol sérico. Los oocitos se colocaron en el mismo cáteter junto con la preparación de semen obtenida 2 horas antes de la cirugía. Se realizó la transferencia en la porción ampular de cada trompa(laparoscopia o minilaparotomía). Como resultado se han obtenido 34 embarazos(10 gemelares y 1 de trillizos). Han ocurrido 15 partos, hay 2 embarazos evolucionando en el tercer trimestre, 5 en el segundo. Se produjeron 10 abortos y 2 embarazos ectópicos(tubáricos)
