Comparison of Prevalence of Luteal Hematocele in Three Kinds of Infertile Women

Objective:To compare the prevalence of luteal hematocele in three kinds of infertile women.Methods:240 infertile women who underwent ovulation supervision were retrospectively analyzed in our HRT center.They were divided into three groups according to their infertile etiology:77 cases in endometriotic group,48 cases in chronic pelvic inflammatory disease(PID)(pelvic adherence or tuberculosis),and 115 cases in control group(caused by male factor without female infertile abnormality).The incidence of luteal hematocele in these three groups was compared.Results:The incidence of luteal hematocele in endometriotic group,PID group,and control group was 27.3%,16.7%,and 0.87%,respectively.That was significantly higher in the former groups than that in control group(P0.01).The incidence of luteal hematocele in endometriotic group was higher than that of the PID group,and the difference hadn't significant.The diameter of luteal hematocele and size of developing follicle former to luteal hematocele had no difference between these two groups.Conclusions:The incidence of luteal hematocele in endometriotic and PID group is higher.For the infertile patients with endometriosis and/or PID,it's a referential indication for laparoscopy examination if appears luteal hematocele by ultrasound monitoring.
