Objective:
To analyze whether the use of blastocyst intrafallopian transfer is a feasible option in a case of repeated difficult ET.
Design:
Case report.
Setting:
Public hospital.
Patient(S):
Forty-year old nulliparous patient.
Intervention(S):
Transfer of two vitrified/warmed blastocysts into the right tube by means of laparoscopy.
Main Outcome Measure(S):
Successful ET, clinical pregnancy.
Result(S):
Successful ET procedure resulting in positive ß-hCG and clinical pregnancy.
Conclusion(S):
In cases of repeated difficult ETs (regardless of whether the patient shows cervical adhesions or any type of genital malformations), blastocyst intrafallopian transfer can be a successful alternative approach.
