Brief Summary:
To evaluate the effect of performing laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD) before proceeding to in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) on the cycle outcomes in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients with high antimullerian hormone (AMH) levels

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Infertility Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Procedure: LOD

Detailed Description:
Retrospective case-control study of PCOS women with high serum AMH level (≥ 7 ng/ml) who were subjected IVF/ICSI. Women underwent LOD in the preceding 3 months prior to IVF/ICSI (study group) will be compared with a control group of women who did not underwent LOD (control group)

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Study group
PCOS women with AMH level (≥ 7 ng/ml) who underwent LOD in the preceding 3 months prior to IVF/ICSI
Procedure: LOD
Women underwent LOD in the preceding 3 months prior to IVF/ICSI
Other Name: Laparoscopic ovarian drilling

Control group
PCOS women with AMH level (≥ 7 ng/ml) who did not undergo LOD in the preceding 3 months prior to IVF/ICSI



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of oocytes retrieved [ Time Frame: 36-38 hours after triggering of oocyte maturation ]
    Number of collected oocytes during oocyte retrieval

  2. Oocyte maturity rate [ Time Frame: Within one hour after oocyte retrieval ]
    Calculated for each woman by dividing the number of mature oocytes (MII oocytes) by the total number of oocytes retrieved

  3. Fertilization rate [ Time Frame: 20-24 hours after injection (or insemination) ]
    Calculated for each couple by dividing the number of fertilized oocytes by the number of injected (or inseminated) oocytes


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Clinical pregnancy rate [ Time Frame: 6 weeks after embryo transfer ]
    Number of clinical pregnancies (defined as presence of at least one intrauterine gestational sac with fetal pole and cardiac activity on TVS scan at 4-6 weeks after the ET) divided by the number of ET procedures

  2. Implantation rate [ Time Frame: 6 weeks after embryo transfer ]
    Number of gestational sacs on TVS scan at 4-6 weeks after ET divided by the number of transferred embryos

  3. Incidence of early OHSS [ Time Frame: Within 9 days of final triggering of oocyte maturation ]
    Incidence of OHSS within 9 days of final triggering of oocyte maturation
