RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Acute fatty liver disease in pregnancy (AFLP) is a low-incidence condition that usually affects women in the third trimester of pregnancy or the early postpartum period. This article reviews recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of AFLP with pancreatitis in pregnancy induced by in vitro fertilization (IVF). CASE REPORT: A rare case of AFLP and pancreatitis occurred in a pregnant woman with an IVF-induced twin pregnancy delivered by cesarean section. Diagnosis of this condition is difficult, and delay in accurate diagnosis and timely and appropriate treatment can lead to serious complications such as acute pancreatitis or extensive damage to multiple organs and systems, which can have significant consequences. The main therapeutic approach was the rapid administration of drugs accompanied by therapeutic measures to support liver function and pancreatic complications. CONCLUSIONS: We would like to reemphasize the importance of multidisciplinary management and rapid intervention in AFLP with acute pancreatitis after IVF.

OBJECTIVE: To preserve ovarian reserve, we treated ovarian endometriomas by ultrasound-guided aspiration followed by sclerotherapy of the cyst mucosa. We compared the results with laparoscopic cystectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study of 96 women with ovarian endometriomas. In 54 of the women, ultrasound-guided aspiration of the contents was performed, followed by chemical sclerotherapy of the cyst plaque with ethanol. Laparoscopic cystectomy was performed in the remaining 42 women. RESULTS: Statistical analysis of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels before and after the procedures showed a significant decrease in the case of cystectomy compared with ethanolic ovarian sclerotherapy (EOS). CONCLUSIONS: Conservative treatment by echo-assisted puncture and sclerotherapy with ethanol proved to be a viable treatment for the removal of ovarian endometriomas. It is a simple procedure that does not affect ovarian reserve or fertility.
