Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in predicting and mornitoring ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome(OHSS). Methods 11 cases of OHSS patients and 16 cases of high-responder patients were enrolled in this study, respectively from IVF-ET or ICSI programme. Serum VEGF level before giving gonadotrophin, on the days of hCG administration, OPU and ET, and at the 7th and 14th days after ET as well as the VEGF level of follicular fluid (FF) on the day of OPU were measured. The serum VEGF of hospitalized women with severe OHSS were also measured during the whole therapy. Results Compared with high-responder patients, serum VEGF level on mid luteal and late luteal phases significantly increased in OHSS patients, and FF VEGF level obviously increased as well. Serum VEGF level gradually decreased along with clinical and biological improvement of OHSS. Conclusion FF VEGF level could predict the occurrence of OHSS, and serum VEGF level could monitor the progress of OHSS.
