A successful pregnancy after intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer in a patient with endometrial cancer who was treated conservatively.

OBJECTIVE: To describe a patient with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) conceiving with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and embryo transfer after conservative treatment of early stage endometrial cancer. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: Tertiary center for assisted reproductive technologies.A 32-year-old woman with PCOS, primary infertility of 4 years duration, and grade 1 endometrioid endometrial cancer. INTERVENTION(S): Assessment of myometrial invasion and extrauterine spread with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and explorative laparotomy. High-dose progestin treatment and ICSI and embryo transfer. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Successful take-home baby and no residual endometrial cancer. RESULT(S): A healthy normal female infant with a birth weight of 1740 g was born by cesarean section at 30 weeks' gestation. No residual cancer was detected at the follow-up curettage performed 2 months after the delivery. CONCLUSION(S): Conservative uterus-preserving treatment may be considered in patients with early stage endometrial cancer. Assisted reproductive technologies may be used in such patients for immediate achievement of pregnancy.[1]
