Popis: The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is one of the most frequentendocrine diseases when talking about women who reached the reproduction age, having an estimated incidence of 5 - 40% and it represents 75% of the cases of anovulatory infertility. This personal study represents a retrospective analysis of a total number of 321 patients diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in the period of time between 2010 and 2014 from the clinical, paraclinical and statistical point of view. The patients were systematically assessed in time and underwent a medical therapeutic method in the Clinic of Obstetrics-Gynaecology of the Emergency County Hospital Bacău. The patients included in the study were followed during their hospitalization, but also after that, in order to study the evolution of the case. They were performed transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasonography scans, as they are extremely important in the algorithm of paraclinical diagnostic. Based on the data we collected we can now state that in 69% of the cases the ultrasound scan was the predominant criterion for diagnosing polycystic ovaries. For the rest of the cases, including the ones with a normal ultrasound scan of the ovaries, the diagnostic was established after correlating the clinical data with the other paraclinal ones, as agreed in the Rotterdam consensus. About 7-8% of the women having a reproductive age are affected by the polycystic ovary syndrome, so this is considered to be the main cause of infertility in women, and also the most frequently met endocrine disease in women.
