Incidence of Interstitial Pregnancy After In Vitro Fertilization/Embryo Transfer and the Outcome of a Consecutive Series of 38 Cases Managed by Laparoscopic Cornuostomy or Cornual Repair.

Study Objective: To determine the incidence of interstitial pregnancy after in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer (ET) treatment and report on our experience of laparoscopic cornuostomy or cornual repair for interstitial pregnancy.

Design: Single-center, retrospective review (Canadian Task Force classification II-3).

Setting: University hospital.

Recurrent miscarriage and birth sex ratio.

Objective: To examine the relationship between birth sex ratio and unexplained recurrent miscarriage (RM).

Study Design: Retrospective, observational study including a total of 138 women with primary recurrent miscarriage (PRM) and 170 women with secondary recurrent miscarriage (SRM) in a tertiary referral recurrent miscarriage clinic between 1992 and 2010. The sex ratio of the first birth and subsequent birth were the main outcome measures.

Treatment of recurrent miscarriage and antiphospholipid syndrome with low-dose enoxaparin and aspirin.

The aim of this retrospective, observational study was to determine the impact of low-dose enoxaparin (20 mg) in conjunction with low-dose aspirin on the pregnancy outcome of women with antiphospholipid syndrome and recurrent miscarriage. The study was conducted in a tertiary referral teaching hospital. A total of 35 women with antiphospholipid syndrome were treated with low-dose enoxaparin and aspirin as soon as pregnancy was confirmed.

A reappraisal of the role of polycystic ovary syndrome in recurrent miscarriage.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder that is associated with recurrent miscarriage. Despite the many studies that have investigated the prevalence of PCOS in recurrent miscarriage, the extent to which PCOS contributes remains highly uncertain. The majority of these studies have used the polycystic ovary morphology alone to define PCOS and the results are extremely variable due to a variety of diagnostic and selection criteria used.
