摘要
A case of appendicitis following transvaginal oocyte retrieval is presented. The time sequence and the finding of puncture holes in the appendix indicate a causal relationship between the two events. Although minor infectious complications have been reported previously, this is the first report of appendicitis caused by transvaginal oocyte retrieval.
