Improvement in Serum Anti-Müllerian Hormone Levels in Infertile Patients after Hyperbaric Oxygen (preliminary results).

Objective: To assess whether hyperbaric oxygen sessions elevate serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in patients diagnosed with infertility with serum levels of less than or equal to 1 ng/dl AMH.

Methods: A study was performed on 4 patients diagnosed with infertility. Serum AMH level was measured at the beginning and end of hyperbaric oxygen sessions, and endometrial thickness was measured on endometrial cycle day 14 before and during the hyperbaric oxygen sessions.

[Clinical practice guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of hyperprolactinemia].

Background: Hyperprolactinemia is a common finding within clinical practice in both endocrinology and general practice fields, amongst other specialties. The general practitioner and other specialists must know the indications and serum prolactin determination parameters in order to, once detected, derive the patient for a correct assessment and begin treatment.

Objective: Formulate a clinical practice guideline evidence-based for the diagnosis and treatment of hyperprolactinemia.

[MURCS association: case report].

Clinical term of association refers to a not randomized congenital malformations which are present in one single subject. The term MURCS is an acronym for (MU) Mullerian, (R) Renal, (C) Cervicothoracic, (S) Somite abnormalities. We communicate a case of a phenotipically normal 16 years old female patient with primary amenorrhea due to müllerian malformations and cervicothoracic dysplasia integrating the MURCS association diagnosis.

[Usefulness of office hysteroscopy].

Objective: To demonstrate the efficacy and feasibility of the office hysteroscopy in the treatment of the endouterine pathologies.

Design: retrospective, descriptive and observational.

Patients And Method: We included all the office hysteroscopies performed since February-2000 to August-2004 (n=84) in a private medical office.
