LABORATORY PREDATORS OF SPONTANEOUS PREGNANCY OCCURRENCE IN WOMEN WITH OVARIAN CYSTS AFTER LAPAROSCOPIC TREATMENT OF INFERTILITY

The main goal of treating couples with infertility is achieving pregnancy and successful delivery of the newborn. Laparoscopy is used worldwide for treating patients with infertility due to endometriosis or recurrent functional uni- or bilateral ovarian cysts. In our prospective study we examined 258 women with the diagnosis of benign mass of the ovaries who underwent treatment for infertility at Samara State Clinical Hospital n.a. V.D. Seredavin within the period from November 2015 to December 2017. 54 women with infertility were enrolled in the current study. We divided them into two groups: the first group included patients with endometrioid cysts (n = 20) and the second one included patients diagnosed with functionalovarian cysts (n = 34). Exclusion criteria comprised the tubal factor of infertility, male factor, BMI > 25 of female and other metabolic disorders. Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) ng/ml and CA-125 were determined preoperatively. Patients were compatible with age, parity, and duration of infertility. Post-operative levels of AMH were measured on the first cycle after surgery. Postoperatively the patients were followed up for 6 monthsin order to confirm the presence/absence of pregnancy by ultrasound examination and the level of human chorionic gonadotropin in blood. 42,6% of total women enrolled in this study became pregnant within 6 months after surgery. The proportion of pregnancies in the group with treated endometriomas was significantly lower in comparison with the group of functional cysts: 7 patients (35%)in the first groupand 16 patients (47,05%) in the second one, p < 0.007 respectively. We consider post-operative AMH level to be more accurate prognostic tool for predicting results of laparoscopic infertility treatment in women both with ovarian cysts and endometriomas.
