| 9 | Surgical and nutritional interventions for endometrial receptivity:A case report and review of literature显示文摘BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)is an endocrine disease that combines metabolic,reproductive,and psychological dysfunctions.Ovulation disorders and impaired endometrial receptivity in PCOS can cause infertility.Insulin resistance(IR)is a pathological state of inadequate response to insulin that affects reproduction in PCOS,as damage caused by IR at the endometrial level becomes an obstacle for embryo implantation.Reversing IR resulted in spontaneous pregnancies in PCOS patients,indicating that metabolic corrections improve endometrial dysfunctions.Mesenchymal stem-cell treatment has also corrected endometrial quality and lead to pregnancies in patients with Asherman’s syndrome.We propose a combination of nutritional intervention with the surgical placement of stem cells to improve endometrial quality to achieve pregnancy in a PCOS patient undergoing in vitro fertilization(IVF)treatment.CASE SUMMARY After two failed IVF cycles,a metabolic intervention,consisting of a ketogenic diet with daily consumption of 50 g of carbohydrates(CH),was indicated until pregnancy.Metabolic Syndrome was assessed using the Harmonizing Definition(3 of 5 pathologies:Central obesity,hypertension,hyperglycemia,hypertriglyceridemia,and dyslipidemia),and the Homeostatic Model Assessment of IR(HOMA-IR)was used to measure the level of IR.Once IR improved,endometrial quality improved.However,two day 5-thawed embryos(euploid,donated oocyte–partner's sperm)failed to implant,suggesting endometrial quality improvement was insufficient.Therefore,transmyometrial implantation of mesenchymal stem cells from the stromal vascular fraction of adipose tissue was performed to enrich the endometrial stem cell niche.Minimal endometrial mean thickness for embryo transfer(6.9 mm)was achieved three months after stem cell treatment and continuous dietary control of IR.Two euploid-day 5-thawed embryos(donated oocyte–partner's sperm)were transferred,and embryo implantation was confirmed on day 14 byβ-hCG serum levels.Currently,a 37 wk baby girl is born.CONCLUSION In PCOS,endometrial quality can be improved by combining nutrient-based metabolic correction with endometrial stem cell niche enrichment. | Dinorah Hernández-Melchor Cecilia Palafox-Gómez Ivan Madrazo Ginna Ortiz America Padilla-Viveros Esther López-Bayghen | 2022 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2022，10，33： | 1 |
