| Popis: | Transvaginal oocyte retrieval is a frequently used procedure during IVF cycles worldwide, as it has many advantages such as acceptable safety and effectiveness. However, some serious complications can occur, including hemorrhage, infection, and injury to adjacent pelvic structures. Certain rare complications, including ureteral obstruction, ureterovaginal fistula, and vertebral osteomyelitis have been observed in some case reports. Although these complications are rare, they can lead to life-threatening conditions. Therefore, preventive strategies should be seriously considered, including sterilization, adequate equipment, and proper training of staff. The aim of this chapter is to discuss both common and rare complications of oocyte pick-up and propose some recommendations for making the procedure safer. |
