Management of peri-ovarian hematoma following oocyte retrieval in a pooling cycle IVF: Case report.

Abstract

Here we report a case of peri-ovarian hematoma following ovum pick-up in a patient in a pooling cycle IVF (in vitro fertilization). We have attempted to discuss the possible mechanisms for the development of hematoma in such patients, the common clinical presentation, monitoring, and management of these cases. The decision to operate or to manage conservatively forms an important aspect of managing such patients. This case report can help to keep the clinicians alert while managing this subgroup of patients.
