摘要
Transvaginal ultrasound has recently been introduced diagnostically for follicular monitoring, early pregnancy localization (1), pelvic structure identification, early fetal development (2), detection of ovarian enlargement in postmenopausal women (3), and detection of endometrial carcinoma (4). Transvaginal ultrasound has had a major impact on patient monitoring and treatment for in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF/ET). Therapeutically transvaginal ultrasound has been introduced for oocyte retrieval and selective pregnancy reduction. The purpose of this paper is to present the therapeutic use of transvaginal ultrasound to aspirate large bilateral hydrosalpinges which complicated embryo transfer during an in vitro fertilization cycle.
