Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly (OHVIRA) syndrome is a rare group of disorders that affects women at all stages of life. These disorders can elicit symptoms such as menstrual molimina and dysmenorrhea during puberty; miscarriage, premature birth, and infertility during childbearing age; and purulent discharge during menopause and old age. In this study, we report our experience with OHVIRA syndrome, which was diagnosed during childbearing age when the patient showed signs of infection during pregnancy.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common cause of viral infection in newborn babies, and affects 1 in 200 of all live born infants in high-income countries; and 1 in 71 in low- and middle-income countries. It is a major cause of hearing loss and brain damage. Women may get CMV infection for the first time during pregnancy (primary infection) or may experience 'non-primary' infection, either by reactivation of previous CMV infection or by a new infection with a different strain of the virus.

Purpose: In clinical practice, the success of preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic diseases (PGT-M) for thalassemia was hindered by the absence of probands, incomplete family members, or failure in detecting embryonic gene mutation sites. This study aimed to address these issues.

Methods: This retrospective study included 342 couples undergoing PGT-M for α- or β-thalassemia at three reproductive medicine centers from 2019 to 2022.
