  • In vitro fertilization following laparoscopic Ovarian diathermy in patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
    Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1997
    Co-Authors: Nicola Colacurci, Fulvio Zullo, Pasquale De Franciscis, Antonio Mollo, Giuseppe De Placido
    Abstract:

    Background. To evaluate the in vitro fertilization outcome in patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome previously treated by laparoscopic Ovarian diathermy.Methods. We designed a prospective study to compare in vitro fertilization stimulation parameters and pregnancy rate for two groups of women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. In the first group, we included 23 patients previously treated by laparoscopic Ovarian electrodia-thermy (group A), in the second group we included 36 women who did not undergo surgical treatment (group B). All patients underwent the same Ovarian hyperstimulation protocol and a standard in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer technique. In a limited number of women (five in group A and eight in group B) we measured the levels of sex steroids in follicular fluid. Statistical analysis was performed by means of chi-square test or Fisher's exact test to compare frequencies and by means of the Student's t-test or ANOVA test to compare means. Significance was set at p

  • Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis Associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.
    Cureus, 2019
    Co-Authors: Pallavi Basu, Philip R. Cohen
    Abstract:

    Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is an endocrine disorder diagnosed commonly in young women. Various cutaneous manifestations can include acanthosis nigricans, acne, hirsutism, and alopecia. Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis is a rare skin condition that may be associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The etiology of confluent and reticulated papillomatosis is not yet well established but multiple theories exist regarding its pathogenesis. We describe a woman with established Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome who presented with confluent and reticulated papillomatosis; her skin condition was successfully treated with azithromycin. The clinical features, differential diagnosis, epidemiology, and proposed etiologies for confluent and reticulated papillomatosis are discussed as well as possible treatment options. Among women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, confluent and reticulated papillomatosis and acanthosis nigricans can occur concurrently. Additionally, it is possible that confluent and reticulated papillomatosis occurs more commonly in this patient population.

  • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome-associated Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis: Report of a Patient Successfully Treated with Azithromycin.
    The Journal of clinical and aesthetic dermatology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Laura Paul Fite, Philip R. Cohen
    Abstract:

    Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a common endocrine disorder with a variety of dermatologic manifestations among young women. Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis is a rare dermatosis of unknown etiology that is seldom reported in patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. We describe the case of a young woman with obesity, confluent and reticulated papillomatosis, and concurrent acanthosis nigricans. Her history, physical examination, and laboratory evaluation led to the diagnosis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The proposed etiologies and the various of treatment options for confluent and reticulated papillomatosis are discussed. In our case, the patient had a dramatic response to treatment with azithromycin. The etiology of confluent and reticulated papillomatosis remains to be established. Additionally, the mechanism behind the success of treatment with antibiotics is unclear; however, in this patient, azithromycin was a safe and effective option for the treatment of confluent and reticulated papillomatosis.
