Selective embryo reduction was performed between 8th-12th pregnancy week, through vaginal punction and aspiration of embryonic mass. Results Vanishing embryo was observed in 86 patients (18.0%). In 61 patients (70.9%) this phenomenom happened before 9th pregnancy week. The incidence of VE increased with higher number of gestational sacs initially visualized (P〈0.03). First trimester bleeding was more common among pregnancies with VE than in the control (P〈0.005). The incidence of pregnancy induced hypertension was lower in pregnancies with VE than in the controls (P〈0.03). In contrast, preterm spontaneous rupture of membranes was higher, although without statistical significance. Gestational age at delivery, mode of delivery and birth weight was similar in the group of VE and the controls (P=NS). Conclusion All these informations may be useful in counselling patients on the prognosis and outcome of pregnancies achieved by oocyte donation.展开更多
