Abstract :
Background: The objective of this case presentation was describing a live birth in
an advanced-age woman with an extremely enlarged uterus, an ovary with blocked
fallopian tubes, hypothyroidism and generalized anxiety disorder caused by childbirth
following intracytoplasmic sperm injection/embryo transfer (ICSI-ET) with autologous
oocytes.
Case Presentation: A 47-year-old patient with an enlarged uterus due to recurrent
multiple fibroids following myomectomy was referred to clinical laboratory with a
high level of desire to follow the prescribed recommendations and approaches to retrieve
her fertility. The patient underwent two cycles of oocyte retrieval and two
rounds of frozen-thawed embryo transfer. To achieve a successful pregnancy after
oocyte retrieval (birth weight of 3300 g at 38 weeks of gestation), a frozen/thawed
embryo in the second cycle of ET was transferred.
Conclusion: Usage of efficient planning and management of ICSI treatments in patient
with autologous oocytes and concurrent disorders, can be used as a new approach
