This case report describes a rare instance of a ruptured ovarian abscess occurring late after ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval in a patient with ovarian endometriomata, highlighting the need for consideration in differential diagnoses of post-retrieval abdominal pain.

Abstract

Ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte retrieval (TVOR) has become the gold standard for couples undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Despite a relatively low complication rate following the procedure, here we report a rare case of a ruptured ovarian abscess presenting late after ultrasound-guided TVOR in a 32-year-old woman with ovarian endometriomata. Prompt intervention and proper choices of treatment led to rapid patient recovery with no long-term sequelae. Rupture of ovarian abscess needs to be included in the differential diagnosis of a patient presenting with abdominal pain following TVOR.
