One follicle, one egg, one embryo: a case-report of successful pregnancy obtained from a single oocyte collected.

In this report, we present an unusual case of a couple who achieved a successful pregnancy by ICSI with a single oocyte collected. The cumulus-oocyte-complex (COC) was retrieved at 36.5 hours post trigger, and was found to be at metaphase II, when sperm injection was performed at around 39 hours post trigger.

Live birth following a single oocyte fertilized with ICSI and embryo transfer on day 2: a case report.

In this report, we present a case of a couple who obtained a live birth with a single oocyte fertilized by intracytoplasmic sperm injection. The oocyte was collected at 36 h post trigger and was found to be at metaphase II when sperm injection was performed. At 18 h post injection, the oocyte was found to be fertilized with two clear pronuclei.

Monoamniotic twin pregnancy following the transfer of a single blastocyst resulting from intracytoplasmic sperm injection of a single oocyte: a case report.

In this report we present an unusual case of a couple who achieved a twin pregnancy by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with a single immature oocyte retrieved. The oocyte was at metaphase I at 39 h post human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) administration, which is our standard ICSI time. Extended culture allowed the extrusion of the polar body, and sperm injection was performed at 43 h post-trigger.

Consensus Opinions on Facial Beauty and Implications for Aesthetic Treatment in Middle Eastern Women.

Background: Middle Eastern women worldwide increasingly seek aesthetic treatment to enhance their beauty and improve self-esteem, but literature describing standards of beauty across the Middle East are scarce. Knowledge of facial anthropometry and Middle Eastern subregional beauty preferences and aesthetic weaknesses are key to develop an effective facial enhancement strategy that does not jeopardize ethnic identity or facial harmony.

Methods: Dermatologists and plastic surgeons from 8 Middle Eastern countries who had 7.

Endoscopic versus laparoscopic management of an eroded mesh in vertical banded gastroplasty: video case series and literature review.

Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) was one of the most common bariatric surgeries worldwide in the beginning of the 21st century. However, recently we have increasingly encountered its long-term complications. We present two cases of VBG mesh erosion, alongside videos for their management.

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of pediatricians on infantile colic in the Middle East and North Africa region.

Background: Regional evidence-based guidelines for the prophylaxis and management of infantile colic are not available for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The Allied Against Infantile Functional GI Disorders (ACT) Working Group was created in January, 2015 to determine the knowledge gaps and the current management practices of infantile colic by physicians in the MENA region. The ACT group determined the need for a survey to address these questions.
