In vitro fertilization in two patients with Kartagener's syndrome and infertility.

Antoine Abu-Musa1, Anwar Nassar, Ihab Usta.   

Abstract

Women with Kartagener's syndrome (KS) are at a risk for infertility because of the dyskinetic ciliary activity in the fallopian tubes. In vitro fertilization - embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is considered the treatment of choice for patients with tubal factor infertility. In the literature only 2 patients with KS were treated with IVF-ET, with only one pregnancy achieved. We report 2 patients with KS and infertility treated successfully with IVF-ET. (c) 2007 S.
