Ectopic pregnancy rates with frozen compared with fresh blastocyst transfer.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To compare the rate of ectopic pregnancy (EP) with fresh versus frozen blastocyst transfer in our program during the same time period. DESIGN:Retrospective analysis. SETTING:University IVF program. PATIENT(S):Women who achieved a clinical pregnancy after IVF between 1998 and 2005. INTERVENTION(S):In our program, cryopreservation is performed at the blastocyst stage. Embryo transfer was performed 1 to 1.5 cm short of the fundus by abdominal ultrasound guidance. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):The incidence of EP was examined in relation to fresh versus frozen blastocyst transfer. RESULT(S):In the frozen blastocyst group, there were 5 EPs out of 180 clinical pregnancies (2.8%), and there were 10 EPs out of 564 clinical pregnancies (1.8%) in the fresh blastocyst group. CONCLUSION(S):The rate of EP is not significantly increased after the transfer of frozen thawed blastocysts compared with fresh blastocyst transfer.
