Abstract
To assess the effectiveness of repeated transvaginal ultrasound-guided ovarian interstitial laser treatment in the management of anovulatory patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). A retrospective study was performed in our department on 27 anovulatory PCOS women who failed to respond to the first ultrasound-guided transvaginal ovarian interstitial laser treatment. Each woman received a repeat procedure and postoperative rates of ovulation and pregnancy were monitored. Of 27 patients, 18 (66.67%) ovulated spontaneously following the repeated ultrasound-guided transvaginal ovarian interstitial laser treatment Ten women became pregnant within six postoperative months and a cumulative pregnancy rate of 37.04% was achieved. There were no significant operative complications. Repeated ultrasound-guided transvaginal ovarian interstitial laser treatment is an effective and safe management in anovulatory PCOS patients who fail to respond or have a transient response to the first transvaginal ovarian interstitial laser treatment.
