PURPOSE: to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value of double contrast barium enema (DCBE) for the diagnoses of rectum and sigmoid endometriosis. METHODS: prospective transversal study including 37 patients with suspicion of deep endometriosis. Patients were submitted to DCBE, according to the standard technique described in the literature, and then, to laparoscopy. The results of laparoscopy and the DCBE images were interpreted and compared, based on the histological evaluation. Statistical analysis was done by association (χ2 test) and agreement analyses (Kappa's test). RESULTS: patients' average age was 35.8±4.4 years old (age group from 28 to 48 years), 85.6% of them being white and 14.4%, black women. Deep endometriosis was confirmed by laparoscopy and histological exam in all the studied patients. Intestinal endometriosis was confirmed by histological exam in 27 women (72.9%) of them. DCBE demonstrated suggestive radiologic signs of intestinal infiltration by endometriosis in 24 women (64.9%) and no signs in 13 women (35.1%). The method sensitivity was 67.5%, specificity 53.8%, positive predictive value, 77.8% and negative predictive value, 70%. Among the 24 abnormal exams, 16 (43.2%) presented radiologic speculum-type image, 16 (43.2%), an image compatible with stenosis, and four (10.8%), double contour. CONCLUSIONS: the DCBE presents high sensitivity and high positive predictive value, in the diagnosis of the rectum and sigmoid endometriosis. Radiologic images speculum and stenosis-type present high sensitivity and positive predictive value for the intestinal infiltration by endometriosis.

Heterotopic gestation, characterized by the presence of combined topic and ectopic gestation, until recently was considered to be a rare event occurring in 1:30,000 pregnancies. With the appearance of assisted reproduction techniques, this incidence increased to 1:100-500 gestations. Early diagnosis is difficult and frequently is made when the uterine tube has already ruptured. It's presented a case of heterotopic pregnancy diagnosed by means of a clinical presentation of hemorrhagic acute abdomen, with good progression of the topic gestation that resulted in birth. It's pointed out the importance of considering this pathology in the evaluation of women submitted to in vitro fertilization, with the objective of early treatment.

PURPOSE: to verify the effects of intrauterine levonorgestrel device (IUD) in women with adenomyosis, with implantation failure in previous in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. METHODS: eighty infertile women with ages up to 38 years, who had adenomyosis diagnosed by ultrasonography and MRI were selected. All the women presented antecedents of one or more tormer IVF attempts without success due to implantation failure. The women were subdivided into IUD Group, composed of 40 women with an IUD that released 20 µg of levonorgestrel/day during six months, preceding a new IVF cycle, and IVF Group, also composed of 40 women, who were directly submitted to a new IVF cycle without previous adenomyosis treatment. In the IUD Group the uterine volume, thickness and hypersignal foci of the junctional zone were assessed before and after treatment, as well as the pregnancy rates in the new IVF cycle, compared to the data obtained with the IVF Group. Statistical analyses were performed adopting the significance level of 5% (p<0,05), using the Mann-Whitney and Sudent's t tests. RESULTS: after treatment, there was a reduction of 77.7% in the cases of focal adenomyosis, in addition to a significant reduction of the uterine volume and of the mean thickness of the junctional zone from 128.8 to 93.6 ml and from 12.3 to 11.3 mm, respectively. In the IUD Group, pregnancy rate reached 30%, which was higher than, but not significantly different from that of the IVF group, which was 17.5%. CONCLUSION: the use of an IUD with levonorgestrel may be administered prior to IVF cycles in patients with adenomyosis who suffered previous implantation failure.

PURPOSE: to evaluate the histological differentiation pattern in superficial peritoneum lesions and in deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in utero-sacral ligament, bowel (rectum and sigmoid colon) and rectovaginal septum. METHODS: this prospective non-randomized study included 139 patients. Of the total, 234 biopsies were obtained (179 with DIE - Deeply Group - and 55 superficial endometriosis - Superficial Group). From the 179 DIE lesions (Depply Group), 15 were obtained from rectovaginal septum, 72 from rectosigmoid nodules and 92 from utero-sacral ligament. Biopsies were classified in well-differentiated glandular pattern, undifferentiated glandular, mixed glandular differentiation and pure stromal disease, based on specific morphological classification. RESULTS: in the Depply Group (DIE), 33.5% of the biopsies showed undifferentiated glandular pattern and 46.9% mixed glandular pattern. In the Superficial Group, there was the predominance of the well-differentiated glandular pattern (41.8%). Comparing specifically the different localizations of the biopsies of DIE lesions (Deeply Group), a predominance of mixed pattern in bowel nodules (61.1%) was noted. CONCLUSIONS: it was possible to conclude that there is a predominance of well-differentiated glandular pattern in superficial endometriosis, a predominance of mixed undifferentiated in deeply pelvic endometriosis and, specifically studying endometriosis from the rectum and sigmoid colon, there was a predominance of the mixed pattern.

PURPOSE: comparative analysis of the outcome of women with advanced pelvic endometriosis and women with tubal sterilization submitted to intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). METHODS: ninety-three infertile women, with normal menstrual cycle, without hormonal or surgical treatment during 12 months, body mass index of 20-25, ovaries with no tumors or cysts were included in the present study and divided into two groups: tubal sterilization (TUB), 39 women, and endometriosis (EDT), 54 women with III-EDT and IV-EDT, undergoing ovulatory induction using r-FSH and ICSI. Clinical and laboratorial data were compared. chi2, Fisher, Student's t, and Mann-Whitney tests were employed. RESULTS: lower estradiol levels (2,243.1 vs 1,666.3; p=0.001) and lower number of follicles per patient (16.9 vs 13.9, p=0.001) were noted in EDT group, in spite of more units of r-FSH (1,775.6 vs 1,998.6; p=0.007, for TUB and EDT, respectively). There were no differences in the rates of retrieved oocyte (69 vs 73.5%; p=0.071) as well as in normal fertilization rates (83.7 vs 81.7%; p=0.563, for TUB and EDT, respectively. However, lower number of top quality preembryos were obtained in patients from EDT group (36.5 vs 24.8%, TUB and EDT, respectively; p=0.005). Total pregnancy (41.0 vs 42.6%; p=0.950) and implantation rates (13.9 vs 14.5%; p=0.905) were not different when groups TUB and EDT were compared. CONCLUSIONS: ovaries of women from EDT group seem to be less responsive to ovulatory induction with r-FSH. EDT seems to impair the mean number of follicles and top quality preembryos with no impairment of retrieved oocyte and fertilization rates. However, once obtained, preembryos from EDT patients are able to exhibit similar implantation potential and pregnancy when compared with patients from TUB group.

PURPOSE: to define the characteristics of unviable embryos that may be donated for stem-cell research. METHODS: a retrospective evaluation of in vitro fertilzation cycles between January 1995 and January 2005 was structured. Cycles were chosen in which the embryos transferred to the uterine cavity had the same morphological characteristics. Subsequently, the rates of pregnancy, implantation, and involution of the gestational sacs of the fresh embryos as well as of those cryopreserved were analyzed and distributed into groups according to their morphology. Embryos that were symmetric and with 0% of fragmentation were designated type A; asymmetric with up to 25% of fragmentation were designated type B; between 25 and 50% of volume occupied were designated type C, and those with 50% or more of fragmentation were designated type D. RESULTS: one hundred and seventy-two type D embryos transferred in 87 cycles presented low rates of implantation (11%) with 50% of those implanted persisting in development. Embryos with the same morphology, after cryopreservation and thawing, did not show the capacity to evolve. In 36 cycles, 113 thawed type D embryos were transferred, resulting in only one implantation, presenting a minute 3% pregnancy rate. The implanted gestational sac did not evolve, showing a 100% rate of involution. CONCLUSION: embryos with low morphological scores cannot be considered unviable because they are capable, even though with a very low frequency, of supporting gestation. However, these same embryos, after cryopreservation, thawing and transfer showed an insignificant rate of pregnancy, that did not result in viable pregnancy. Therefore, when in excess to requirements, type D embryos should not be cryopreserved; instead, rather than discarded, they should be donated for embryo stem-cell research.

PURPOSE: to compare the information obtained with pelvic and transvaginal ultrasonography (USG), hystero-salpingography (HSG), diagnostic hysteroscopy (HSC), pelvic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (PNMR), three-dimensional hysterosonography (3D HSSNG), to optimize and simplify the investigation about cervical and corporeal uterine factors in conjugal infertility. METHODS: in the period between January and July 2003, fifty women reporting infertility for at least two years were submitted to USG, HSG, HSC, PNMR, and 3D HSSNG as tracking examinations for uterine factor diagnosis. The endocervical canal, as well as the endometrium, myometrium, and the presence of uterine malformations were investigated. The results of each examination were analyzed and compared. RESULTS: of the 50 women studied, 12 (24%) presented alteration in at least one of the examinations. When 3D HSSNG was compared to USG, 3D HSSNG provided additional information in 7 cases (58.3%); when compared to HSG, it provided additional information in 7 cases (58.3%); when compared to HSC, it provided additional information in 4 cases (32.1%), and when compared to PNMR, it provided additional information in 6 cases (50%). There were only two cases in which HSG detected alterations of the endocervical canal that were not visualized using 3D HSSNG. In the other cases 3D HSSNG imparted the same diagnosis; furthermore, it provided additional information in comparison to the other examinations. Statistical analysis using the kappa test demonstrated that the diagnoses obtained by 3D HSSNG were in agreement with those obtained with USG, HSG and PNMR (p<0,05). When the HSG and 3D HSSNG results were combined, all conditions associated with infertility could be precisely diagnosed, using only these examinations. CONCLUSION: the association of the HSG with 3D HSSNG may be sufficient for the diagnosis of cervical and corporeal uterine factors in infertility, reducing the number of examinations for each patient, the total cost, as well as the anxiety and the delay in treatment.
