[Pregnancy results in in vitro fertilization in one case of luteinized-unruptured-follicle syndrome].
Luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome can explain female infertility. The precise mechanism by which the ovulatory follicle fails to rupture is unclear.

Different methods used for detection and treatment are discussed.
