Abstract

A 30-year-old infertile women with stage IV endometriosis was treated initially with endoscopic surgery, danazol and intrauterine insemination to no avail. Before starting ovulation induction for in vitro fertilization, transvaginal sonographic guided aspiration of endometrioma was performed. One month after the procedure the patient became pregnant and delivered a normal child at term.
