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