Effect of high intensity focused ultrasound treatment on ovarian reserve capacity in adenomyosis / 医疗卫生装备

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the impact of high intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU)treatment on ovarian reserve capacity in adenomyosis.Methods Clinical data of 106 adenomyosis patients who underwent HIFU treatment from May 2019 to December 2020 at some hospital were analyzed retrospectively.All the patients were treated with HIFU,and color Doppler ultrasonography was performed before and after 6 months of treatment,respectively.The resistance index,pulsatility index,vascularization index,blood flow index,vascularization blood flow index and sinus follicle number were obtained,and serum anti-Mullerian hormone(AMH),follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)and luteinizing hormone(luteinizing hormone)were measured.The correlation between serum AMH levels and FSH and LH levels was analyzed.SPSS 21.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.Results After 6 months of treatment serum FSH,LH,value of FSH/LH,resistance index and pulsatility index significantly decreased while vascularization index,blood flow index,vascularization blood flow index,number of sinus follicles,and serum AMH level obviously increased when compared with those before treatment,with the differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).Serum AMH levels were negatively correlated with FSH and LH levels(r=-0.448,-0.527,P＜0.05)after 6 months of treatment.Conclusion HIFU treatment reduces sex hormone levels,elevates serum AMH levels and sinus follicle number,and may improve ovarian reserve capacity in patients with adenomyosis.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(1):67-70]
