The impact of uterine cavity structural features on reproductive outcomes in T-shaped uterine malformation.

Objectives: Despite advancements in modern medicine, the effectiveness of in vitro fertilization (IVF) remains low. This study aimed to assess the impact of specific features of T-shaped uterine cavity malformation and its intermediate forms on reproductive function and the effectiveness of assisted reproductive technology (ART), particularly on IVF results and pregnancy outcomes.

Methods: A prospective cohort study included 388 somatically healthy patients undergoing 3D ultrasound (US) examination of the uterine cavity before embryonic transfer for IVF treatment.

Is I-shaped uterus more common in patients with hyperandrogenism?

Objectives: Subtypes of T-shaped uterus are rare uterine cavity anomalies and there are no morphometric criteria for the diagnosis. Earlier we established a high frequency of I-shaped uterus in patients with adrenalhyperandrogenism, which is more common in Armenian populations. The aim of the study was to determine the frequency of I-shaped uterus as a subtype of T-shaped uterus in patients with ovarian and adrenal hyperandrogenism, accompanied by infertility and miscarriage, as well as the development of it's ultrasonic morphometric criteria.

The impact of T-shaped uterine cavity anomaly on IVF outcomes: More questions than answers.

Research Question: The aim of our study was the impact of T-shaped uterine anomaly on in vitro fertilization (per 1 IVF cycle per one embryo transfer) results and pregnancy outcomes.

Design: Prospective cohort study included 388 somatically healthy patients at the age of 20-40 years old who underwent 3-dimensional ultrasound of uterine cavity before embryo transfer. The uterine cavities were classified based on morphometric criteria according to the CUME study.
