Impact of heterogeneous echo in endometrial region on clinical outcome of fertilization in vitro/intracytoplasmic sperm injection / 中国医学影像技术

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the impact of heterogeneous echo in endometrial region on pregnancy rate after fertilization in vitro/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI).Methods Totally 334 patients who underwent IVF/ICSI therapy were enrolled.According to results of B-mode ultrasound in the course of promoting drainage,the patients were divided into heterogeneous echo group (n=88) and normal echo group (n=246).Pregnancy conditions were compared between the two groups.Results Heterogeneous echo group showed significant lower pregnant rate than normal echo group (68.18％ [60/88] vs 78.86 ％ [194/246],P=0.01),while the ectopic pregnancy rate of heterogeneous echo group was higher than that of the normal echo group (5.00％ [3/60] vs 1.03％ [2/194],P=0.01).Pregnancy rate of endometrial thickness patients were higher than that of patients without endometrial thickness in two groups (all P＜0.05).Conclusion Pregnant rate reduced and ectopic pregnancy rate increased in infertility patients with endometrial heterogeneous echo,while higher 10 mm endometrial thickness could contribute to increase pregnant rate.
