[The evaluation of the usefulness of ultrasound independent of estradiol as a prognostic criterion for ovular capture and maturity. A comparative double-blind study].
One hundred and twenty women were studied which had primary or secondary sterility, and underwent into the GIFT or IVF-ET program at the INPer. They were divided in two groups. Group I had 96 women in which only was taken in account the follicular development measured by vaginal ultrasound to decide continuation or cancellation, in this group estradiol serum levels determination was done, but it was not used for decision making; group II had 24 women in which estradiol was taken in account in addition with ultrasound. There were no differences in the number of follicles seen by ultrasound neither in the estradiol serum levels between the groups. Correlation coefficients between follicles seen by ultrasound and retrieved oocytes and mature oocytes, thus partial correlation coefficients for follicles seen by ultrasound plus estradiol serum levels and retrieved oocytes and captured oocytes were higher in group I in all days with the exception of day 10 in which they were similar. By the aforementioned in can be concluded that in this group of patients the ultrasound was the most reliable variable to give a quantitative and qualitative prognostic of oocyte retrieval.
