At present, the less invasive ultrasound-directed techniques are the methods of choice for oocyte retrieval in most in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (FIVET) centers. Among the ultrasound-direct techniques, the transvaginal follicle aspiration guided by transvaginal ultrasound for oocyte recovery is gaining popularity in many FIVET centers. This study compare cycles outcome following transvaginal ultrasound oocyte retrieval (105 cycles) to laparoscopic oocyte retrieval (218 cycles); no statistically significant difference could be demonstrated between the groups in all parameters evaluated but better clinical results have been obtained in transvaginal ultrasound group. The Authors conclude that transvaginal oocyte recovery represents an improvement and a simplification of the FIVET procedure.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009865 Oocytes Female germ cells derived from OOGONIA and termed OOCYTES when they enter MEIOSIS. The primary oocytes begin meiosis but are arrested at the diplotene state until OVULATION at PUBERTY to give rise to haploid secondary oocytes or ova (OVUM). Ovocytes,Oocyte,Ovocyte
D010062 Ovulation Induction Techniques for the artifical induction of ovulation, the rupture of the follicle and release of the ovum. Ovarian Stimulation,Ovarian Stimulations,Stimulation, Ovarian,Stimulations, Ovarian
D010535 Laparoscopy A procedure in which a laparoscope (LAPAROSCOPES) is inserted through a small incision near the navel to examine the abdominal and pelvic organs in the PERITONEAL CAVITY.

D004624 Embryo Transfer The transfer of mammalian embryos from an in vivo or in vitro environment to a suitable host to improve pregnancy or gestational outcome in human or animal. In human fertility treatment programs, preimplantation embryos ranging from the 4-cell stage to the blastocyst stage are transferred to the uterine cavity between 3-5 days after FERTILIZATION IN VITRO.
