Introduction of the single-lumen oocyte retrieval needle in an assisted reproductive technology center: Propensity score matching analysis of grouping.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of oocyte retrieval using a single-lumen aspiration needle compared to a double-lumen aspiration needle in IVF (in vitro fertilization) patients.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study included all IVF cycles between 1st January, 2020 and 31st December, 2022 in Changhua Christian Hospital, Taiwan. Pairwise comparisons were conducted through propensity score matching analysis at a 1:3 ratio according to patients' age, anti-Müllerian hormone levels, and body weight.

Rare live birth to a 48-year-old woman after embryo transfer with autologous oocyte: A case report.

Objective: Advanced maternal age and decreased ovarian reserve have been challenges for assisted reproductive technology (ART). Few cases, using autologous oocytes more than 46-years-old, have previously been reported. We seek to show how the age at which autologous oocytes may successfully be employed may be increasing.

Angiomyofibroblastoma of the Broad Ligament: A Case Report.

Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMF) is a distinctive, rare, benign mesenchymal tumor that often occurs in the lower genital region of women. The most commonly reported location of an AMF is in the vulvovaginal area. We describe a rare case of an AMF located in the broad ligament in a 47-yr-old woman.
