Empty Follicle Syndrome Associated with Ovarian Torsion in an In Vitro Fertilization Program

We report a very rare case of ovarian torsion following controlled ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization in which no oocytes were obtained at the time of ovum retrieval from the left torsed ovary. The patient was a 33-year-old nulligravida female undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation. O...

description We report a very rare case of ovarian torsion following controlled ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization in which no oocytes were obtained at the time of ovum retrieval from the left torsed ovary. The patient was a 33-year-old nulligravida female undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation. On day 14, the patient complained of lower left abdominal pain with nausea. Transvaginal oocyte retrieval from the right ovary was performed. The patient subsequently underwent laparoscopy 6 hours following oocyte retrieval. A portion of the left ovary was observed. The ovary was detorsed at the time of laparoscopy followed by peritoneal lavage.
