Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To describe the option of ultrasonographic-guided percutaneous transabdominal puncture for ovum pickup in a rare case of Rokitansky syndrome with subcostal located ovaries and a right single kidney. DESIGN:Technique and instrumentation. SETTING:A university-based hospital IVF and Reproductive Medicine Unit. PATIENT(S):A woman with congenital agenesis of the uterus in a surrogate gestation program. INTERVENTION(S):Ultrasonographic-guided percutaneous transabdominal puncture for oocyte retrieval. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Number of oocytes retrieved and fertilized. RESULT(S):Oocyte retrieval was feasible in four treatment cycles with subsequent embryo transfer to the surrogate mother. CONCLUSION(S):Ultrasonographic-guided percutaneous transabdominal oocyte collection is a feasible and efficacious procedure for IVF in a case of Rokitansky syndrome with elevated subcostal ovaries and a single kidney.
