  • Current evidence supporting a goal of singletons: a review of maternal and perinatal outcomes associated with twin versus singleton pregnancies after in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection
    Fertility and SterilityVol. 114Issue 4
    • In Brief
      With increasing use of in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF-ICSI) almost 2% of all babies born in the United States each year are now conceived with these technologies, making outcomes of IVF-ICSI extremely important not only to patients and families but to public health. Twin pregnancy rates after IVF-ICSI in the United States have declined since their peak in 2013 but remain at approximately 1 in 10 to 1 in 20 pregnancies. A review of the current international literature on twin versus singleton pregnancy outcomes after IVF-ICSI treatment confirms statistically significantly higher risks to maternal and perinatal health and statistically significantly higher health care costs.

  • Ovarian endometriosis and infertility: in vitro fertilization (IVF) or surgery as the first approach?
    Fertility and SterilityVol. 110Issue 7
    • In Brief
      IVF is commonly applied to all indications for infertility, but increasingly unexplained causes predominate (www.sart.org). Specifically, endometriosis is listed as the primary diagnosis in less than 4% of cases in the United States, primarily because laparoscopy is not performed for the basic infertility workup, as it once was (1). Unexplained cases of infertility show a high prevalence of endometriosis (2, 3). Visible endometriosis such as endometriomas present a special challenge, especially since ovarian reserve may be compromised when ovarian surgery is performed.
