Abstract
OBJECTIVE To update the 2010 CNGOF clinical practice guidelines for the first-line management of infertile couples. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five major themes (first-line assessment of the infertile woman, first-line assessment of the infertile man, prevention of exposure to environmental factors, initial management using ovulation induction regimens, first-line reproductive surgery) were identified, enabling 28 questions to be formulated using the Patients, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome (PICO) format. Each question was addressed by a working group that had carried out a systematic review of the literature since 2010, and followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE®) methodology to assess the quality of the scientific data on which the recommendations were based. These recommendations were then validated during a national review by 40 national experts. RESULTS The fertility work-up is recommended to be prescribed according to the woman's age: after one year of infertility before the age of 35 and after 6months after the age of 35. A couple's initial infertility work-up includes a single 3D ultrasound scan with antral follicle count, assessment of tubal permeability by hysterography or HyFOSy, anti-Mullerian hormone assay prior to assisted reproduction, and vaginal swabbing for vaginosis. If the 3D ultrasound is normal, hysterosonography and diagnostic hysteroscopy are not recommended as first-line procedures. Chlamydia trachomatis serology does not have the necessary performance to predict tubal patency. Post-coital testing is no longer recommended. In men, spermogram, spermocytogram and spermoculture are recommended as first-line tests. If the spermogram is normal, it is not recommended to check the spermogram. If the spermogram is abnormal, an examination by an andrologist, an ultrasound scan of the testicles and hormonal test are recommended. Based on the data in the literature, we are unable to recommend a BMI threshold for women that would contraindicate medical management of infertility. A well-balanced Mediterranean-style diet, physical activity and the cessation of smoking and cannabis are recommended for infertile couples. For fertility concern, it is recommended to limit alcohol consumption to less than 5 glasses a week. If the infertility work-up reveals no abnormalities, ovulation induction is not recommended for normo-ovulatory women. If intrauterine insemination is indicated based on an abnormal infertility work-up, gonadotropin stimulation and ovulation monitoring are recommended to avoid multiple pregnancies. If the infertility work-up reveals no abnormality, laparoscopy is probably recommended before the age of 30 to increase natural pregnancy rates. In the case of hydrosalpinx, surgical management is recommended prior to ART, with either salpingotomy or salpingectomy depending on the tubal score. It is recommended to operate on polyps>10mm, myomas 0, 1, 2 and synechiae prior to ART. The data in the literature do not allow us to systematically recommend asymptomatic uterine septa and isthmoceles as first-line surgery. CONCLUSION Based on strong agreement between experts, we have been able to formulate updated recommendations in 28 areas concerning the initial management of infertile couples.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Can we monitor post-oocyte retrieval infections in the French national health data system to complement the French ART vigilance system? SUMMARY ANSWER Medico-administrative databases provide a more comprehensive view of post-oocyte retrieval infections and can be used to detect abnormal increases in frequency and outlier ART centers as a complementary tool to the ART vigilance system. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The various studies of ART complications are reassuring, showing relatively low overall complication rates. Nonetheless, the European Union has set up a vigilance system to monitor these complications. However, this system is not an exhaustive source of information and does not provide a complete overview of post-ART complications. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION The study population was identified from the comprehensive French national hospital discharge database. It included women under 46 years of age undergoing an oocyte retrieval in 2019, classified into three population subgroups according to the indication of oocyte retrieval: infertility (IF) , fertility preservation (FP), and oocyte donation (OD) . The study population included 52 098 women who had undergone 65 948 oocyte retrievals in 2019. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Hospital stays and delivery of antibiotics within 31 days after oocyte retrieval were analyzed. Women and infections were characterized according to various characteristics (age, comorbidities, indication of oocyte retrieval, type of hospital stay, length of hospital stay, type of antibiotherapy, etc.). Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the relation between the occurrence of infection and women's characteristics, and results are expressed as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CI. A funnel plot and a box plot were used to compare the infection rate per center with the national average and to detect outliers. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE Infections in the month following the oocyte retrieval represented 6.9% of the procedures in 2019 (n = 4522). Of these infections, 112 were hospitalized (0.2% of oocyte retrievals), and 4410 were non-hospitalized (6.7% of oocyte retrievals). The hospitalized infections were essentially gynecological infections (40.9%) and urinary tract infections (23.5%). In 87.9% of non-hospitalized infections, a single antibiotic therapy was prescribed. Mixed-effect model analysis showed that the risk of infection was significantly higher in women under 30 years of age, in the FP population, in supplementary universal health coverage (CMU-C) beneficiaries, and women with endometriosis. Funnel plot and box plot analysis showed that three ART centers have an infection rate significantly higher than the national average. In the three centers that stand out from all the others, the objective is to return to these centers to understand the possible reasons for this observed rate and to implement corrective measures. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION Despite all its advantages, the French national health data system presents some limitations, such as the risk of inappropriate coding. Another limitation of this study is that we cannot confirm an attributable relation between the infection and the ART procedure, even if the delay of 31 days after oocyte retrieval is consistent with the occurrence of a post-retrieval complication. In addition, antibiotics may be prescribed as a 'precautionary' measure in certain situations (women with a susceptibility to infection, complicated procedures), or as antibiotic prophylaxis for embryo transfer. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS Despite the limits in identifying post-ART infections in medico-administrative databases, this approach is a promising way to complement the ART vigilance reporting system. This concept developed for infections will also be generalized to other complications with regular feedback to professionals. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S) No specific funding was sought for the study. The study was supported by the Agence de la biomédecine, France. The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER N/A.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve the reliability of prediction models for ovarian response to stimulation in ART. DESIGN A multicenter retrospective cohort study. SETTING Twelve reproductive centers. PATIENTS A total of 25,854 controlled ovarian stimulations between 2005 and 2016, including cycles cancelled for inadequate response, were included. INTERVENTION(S) None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Precision of the prediction of the number of oocytes at ovarian pickup and of cancellation rate for poor ovarian response. RESULTS Both AMH and antral follicle count exhibit a non-linear effect on the oocyte yield, with a linear relationship after log-transformation. After adjustment for age, BMI, and center, ovarian response observed in a previous stimulation was found to be the best predictor, followed by AMH and AFC. The zero-inflated binomial negative model showed that predictors of cycle cancellation and number of oocytes at retrieval were different, and assimilating cancellation to zero oocyte greatly reduces the determination of the model. Our model was characterized by the best ever reached determination (R2=0.505 for non-naïve women, 0.313 for all the women) and provided evidence of a very strong difference among centers. The results can be easily converted in the prediction of response levels (poor-medium-good-high). Finally, in case of partial report of the above predictors, we show that the univariate prediction based on the best predictor provides a good approximation. CONCLUSION(S) A substantial improvement of the ovarian response prediction is possible in modelling the possible cancellation decision, followed by the oocyte retrieval itself, according to an appropriate model based on previous stimulation and non-linear effects of AMH and AFC.

Abstract
Background Cancer treatments of the last decades improve the survival rate of children and adolescents. However, chemo- and radiotherapy result in gonadal damage, leading to acute ovarian failure and sterility. The preservation of fertility is now an integral part of care of children requiring gonadotoxic treatments. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is an effective fertility preservation option that allows long-term storage of primordial follicles, subsequent transplantation, and restoration of endocrine function and fertility. The efficacy of this technique is well-demonstrated in adults but the data are scarce for pediatric patients. Currently, OTC represents the only possibility of preserving the potential fertility in prepubertal girls. Procedure This is a retrospective study of OTC practice of two French centers from January 2004 to May 2020. A total of 72 patients from pediatric units underwent cryopreservation of ovarian tissue before gonadotoxic therapy for malignant or non-malignant diseases. The ovarian cortex was cut into fragments and the number of follicles per square millimeter was evaluated histologically. The long-term follow-up includes survival rate and hormonal and fertility status. Results The mean age of patients at OTC was 9.3 years [0.2-17] and 29.2% were postpubertal; 51 had malignant diseases and 21 had non-malignant diseases. The most frequent diagnoses included acute leukemia, hemoglobinopathies, and neuroblastoma. Indication for OTC was stem cell transplantation for 81.9% (n = 59) of the patients. A third of each ovary was collected for 62.5% (n = 45) of the patients, a whole ovary for 33.3% (n = 24) of the patients, and a third of one ovary for 4.2% (n = 3) of the patients. An average of 17 fragments [5-35] per patient was cryoconserved. A correlation was found between the age of the patients and the number of fragments (p < 0.001). More fragments were obtained from partial bilateral harvesting than from whole ovary harvesting (p < 0.05). Histological analysis of ovarian tissue showed a median of 6.0 primordial follicles/mm2 [0.0-106.5] and no malignant cells were identified. A negative correlation was found between age and follicular density (p < 0.001). Median post-harvest follow-up was 92 months [1-188]. A total of 15 girls had died, 11 were still under treatment for their pathology, and 46 were in complete remission. Of all patients, 29 (40.2%) were subjected to a hormonal status evaluation and 26 were diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) (p < 0.001). One patient had undergone thawed ovarian tissue transplantation. Conclusion OTC should be proposed to all girls with high risk of developing POI following gonadotoxic therapies in order to give them the possibility of fertility and endocrine restoration.

PATIENT(S) Eighty-eight women who underwent HSCT during childhood or adolescence for AL compared to a control group. INTERVENTION(S) A multicentric prospective national study compared the uterine volume in a cohort of childhood AL survivor adult women treated with HSCT, matched 1:1 to control women. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging scans included diffusion-weighted imaging sequences. Scans were centralized for a double-blinded reading by 2 radiologists. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Uterine volume, uterine body-to-cervix ratio, and apparent diffusion coefficient. RESULT(S) The mean age at HSCT was 9.1 ± 0.3 years with a mean follow-up duration of 16.4 ± 0.5 years. The cohort of 88 HSCT survivor women was composed of 2 subgroups depending on the myeloablative conditioning regimen received: an alkylating agent-based regimen group (n = 34) and a total body irradiation (TBI)-based regimen group (n = 54). Among the 88 women, 77 were considered as having a "correct hormonal balance" with estrogens supplied by hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) or because of a residual ovarian function. In the control group (n = 88), the mean uterine volume was 79.7 ± 3.3 mL. The uterine volume significantly decreased in all HSCT survivor women. After the alkylating agent-based regimen, the uterine volume was 45.3 ± 5.6 mL, corresponding to a significant volume reduction of 43.1% (28.8-57.4%) compared with that of the control group. After TBI, the uterine volume was 19.6 ± 1.9 mL, corresponding to a significant volume reduction of 75.3% (70.5%-80.2%) compared with that of the control group. After the alkylating agent-based regimen, the uterine volume dramatically decreased in women with POI without HRT compared with that in those with a correct hormonal balance (15.2 ± 2.6 vs. 49.3 ± 6 mL). In contrast, after TBI, the uterine volume was similar in all women, with no positive effect of hormonal impregnation on the uterine volume (16.3 ± 2.6 vs. 20.1 ± 2.2 mL, respectively). CONCLUSION(S) The uterine volume was diminished after HSCT, regardless of the conditioning regimen. The physiopathology needs to be further investigated: specific impact of a high dose of an alkylating agent; impact of hormone deprivation around puberty; poor compliance to HRT; or different myometrial impact of HRT compared with endogenous ovarian estrogens?

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) is altered in female affected by DM1 ?
Summary answer
Ovarian response to COH is not altered in female affected by DM1 as compared to partners of affected males
What is known already
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is the most common adult muscular dystrophy caused by a CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion which may expand across generation. As this pathology presents an autosomal dominant inheritance, PGT may be an option to achieve a pregnancy with healthy baby. There are conflicting reports about response to COH for affected female. Moreover, few data are available concerning the chance to have a healthy baby after PGT for couple with one member affected by DM1
Study design, size, duration
The present study is a retrospective observational study carried out from January 2006 through January 2020. This multicentric study was conducted in all the five centers performing PGT-M in France.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A total of 229 couples started at least one COH cycle for the PGT procedure. The patient carrying the mutation was the female for 178 couples and the male for the 51 others. Overall, 648 COH cycles started and 560 oocytes retrieval for subsequent PGT were performed (430 for affected female and 130 for affected male). Parameters of ovarian response and PGT outcomes were compared according to the member affected by DM1.
Main results and the role of chance
Age and BMI at the first COH cycle were not significantly different between both group but female carried mutation presented lower AMH level than partner of affected male. The starting and total doses of gonadotrophin were significantly higher for mutated females. The number of retrieved and mature oocytes per cycle were not statistically different (12 [8–16] versus 11 [8–16] retrieved oocytes, p = 0.63 and 9 [6–13] versus 9 [6-13] mature oocytes, p = 0.73, respectively). In both group, more than 70% of oocyte retrieval led to embryo biopsy.
The proportion of started cycle allowing the obtention of at least one healthy embryo was significantly lower when the female was affected with DM1 (58.6% vs 70.4%, p = 0.012). In the female affected group, 49.7% of the cycles with oocytes retrieval lead to a fresh embryo transfer and a subsequent live birth rate per transfer of 21.4%. These results were not statistically different from the couple with affected male (58.5% of cycles with fresh embryo transfer (p = 0.08) and 23.6% live birth rate per transfer).
Overall, after fresh or frozen embryo transfer, 30.8% of females with DM1and 41.2% of parter of affected males had at least one live birth from PGT.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This a retrospective study included patients who were selected ovarian reserve parameters before PGT process. Moreover, the large time of inclusion may influence our conclusion.
Wider implications of the findings
Information provided herein extends knowledge about the current state of COH for DM1 affected female. Moreover, PGT results presented here allow to provide patients with proposer counseling before starting PGT process.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What is the outcome of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) after microinjection of frozen–thawed sperm and the correlation with histological analysis in azoospermic patients?
Summary answer
In our cohort of 240 azoospermic patients, sperm could be retrieved in 167 patients (69.6%).
What is known already
Testicular biopsy is a crucial assessment in reproductive practice with diagnostic and prognostic importance for ICSI. Divers histological procedures are used throughout the centres. There is increasing need to accurately analyse histological biopsies in order to characterise different type of spermatogenic failure and allows data storage of value in clinical practice and research. Compared with Bouin’s and formalin, glutaraldehyde fixed and semithin section of testicular biopsies have the advantage of yielding not only good cellular morphology but also it allows the possibility of performing electron microscopy.
Study design, size, duration
This is a monocentric retrospective study of TESE practice in azoospermic patients in Strasbourg University Hospital from February 2011 to December 2019.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A total of 240 azoospermic patients underwent TESE followed by sperm cryopreservation when sperm were present and data of histological analysis and clinical outcome of ICSI were analysed. The analysis include initial hormonal status, type of azoospermia, body max index, classification of histological findings, freezing rate and outcome of ICSI-IVF procedure.
Main results and the role of chance
The mean age of 240 patients was 34.5 years. Out of all patients, 42% were diagnosed with obstructive azoospermia (OA) and 58% patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). There was no correlation of sperm retrieval with the body mass index. Overall, sperm could be retrieved in 69.6% patients. Spermatozoa were always successfully recovered in patients with normal testicular histological findings, 41.7% patients (n 100). Histological analysis revealed a Sertoli cell-only (SCO) syndrome in 27.5% cases (n 66), hypospermatogenesis in 14.2% (n 34), germ cell arrest in 7.9 (n 19) and mixed pattern in 8.3% (n 20).
In patients with serum FSH concentrations >12 IU/l, 46% of patients (n 42) sperm were present at TESE. In patients with no sperm retrieval, 31.5% had normal FSH levels. Out of all men with elevated FSH, 63% had SCO pattern, 4% germ cell arrest, 21% hypospermatogenesis and 12% mixt patterns. In the group of patients with no sperm retrieved at TESE, histological analysis showed SCO in 69.9% cases, germ cell arrest in 15% and hypospermatogenesis in 9.6% of cases. Out of 167 patients with TESE and sperm cryopreservation, 126 patients undergone ICSI-IVF procedure and 80 babies were born.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This study is a retrospective analysis in a single centre. The cohort was not compared with groups of patients with different histological and fixation techniques.
Wider implications of the findings: Accurate histological diagnosis is a prerequisite for research and clinical data collection and open the possibilities to include patients with NOA in subsequent detailed genetic screen.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION What is the incidence rate of complications in women undergoing ART procedures compared to the period prior to their first oocyte retrieval? SUMMARY ANSWER The study shows a significant increase in the post-ART incidence rate of some complications but a low overall rate of occurrence relative to the total number of oocyte retrievals. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY ART, widely used in Europe, accounts for 3.3% of births in France. The various studies of ART complications are fairly reassuring, showing relatively low overall complication rates but only few studies have used exhaustive national registers. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION The cohort for this study was identified from the comprehensive French national hospital-discharge database and includes women under 50 years with a first oocyte retrieval (T0) in 2012-2017, classified in three population subgroups according to the indication for oocyte retrieval: infertility (IF), oocyte donation (OD), and fertility preservation (FP). This study includes 156 916 women whose first oocyte retrieval occurred in 2012-2017 and 542 775 hospitalizations in 2010-2019 (excluding first retrieval). PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Hospitalizations for complications or others events (oocyte retrieval, delivery, pregnancy loss, and death in the hospital) during the 2 years before (control period) and after their first oocyte retrieval (post-oocyte retrieval period) were compared and expressed per 10 000 person-months (pm). MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE In the IF subgroup, incidence rates were significantly higher after (vs before) retrieval for hospitalized ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) (162 vs 6/10 000 pm), adnexal torsion (14 vs 3), venous thrombosis (8 vs 1), arterial thrombosis (3 vs 1), trauma (2 vs 1), and significantly lower for infections (61 vs 87). The higher incidences of OHSS, adnexal torsion and venous thrombosis could only partially be explained by the occurrence of pregnancy.In the FP subgroup, incidence increased significantly after (vs before) retrieval for hospitalized OHSS (55 vs 0), venous thrombosis (59 vs 4), and infections (176 vs 56). For the OD subgroup, hospitalized OHSS (116 vs 0) and bleeding (24 vs 0) were significantly higher after (vs before) retrieval. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION The French national health data system, despite all its advantages, present some limitations such as the risk of coding errors. The unavailability of some personal information and the absence of consideration of risk factors prevented us from adjusting the risk. Finally, only complications resulting in hospitalization were analyzed which probably leads to their underestimation. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS The use of medico-administrative bases will be a valuable tool in public health and will furnish a better overview of the complications. Further studies are needed to complete this analysis. Adding information on drugs would help to better define T0 and less severe complications. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S) N/A.

Abstract
The Outcome study examines the fate of 4083 patients beginning IVF in 41 IVF centres, between January 2010 and December 2013. Cumulative live birth rate per patient (CLBR), the best reflection of IVF efficacy, is rarely presented in publications as it requires long-term follow-up, including all successive cycles, and pregnancies outcome. Analysis of international publications shows an average CLBR of 41.6 % and a drop-out rate of 49.5 %, both greatly varying by country and IVF centres. Because of the frequency with which patients change centre (8%), the Outcome study distinguishes patients with a past history of IVF in another centre (CLBR=47.2 %) and patients undergoing their first true cycle (CLBR=56.4 %). Survival techniques by Competing Risk, intended to take account of drop-out and lost to follow-up, assessed the overall CLBR as being 65.4 %. Differences in performance between centres are considerable for both CLBR (32-64%) and Performance Index, taking account of the number of cycles required to achieve a pregnancy (2-5). Multiple variance logistic regression analysis shows that the indicators influencing performance are age, parity, number of oocytes, smoking habit and overweight. These indicators are independent each other and are influencing performance in a high significant way. After adjusting for these indicators, the differences between centres are reduced but remain large and very significant. No centre appears to have specific expertise in the management of patients with adverse indicators. The Outcome study therefore confirms that the large differences in performance between centres are not explained by a difference in the treated population.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To describe a laparoscopic technique for the transplantation of a cryopreserved ovarian cortex. DESIGN Educational video. SETTING University Hospital of Strasbourg, France. INTERVENTIONS A 28-year-old nulliparous woman presented with anaplastic T lymphoma and was then treated with chemotherapy. Before the treatment, the ovarian cortex was collected by laparoscopy to preserve fertility. Remission was achieved, but the patient suffered from premature ovarian failure. At the age of 32 years, she wished to become pregnant. The patient was thus included in the research protocol Development of Ovarian Tissue Autograft in Order to Restore Ovarian Function, and the transplantation site was chosen accordingly. The cortex was stored in liquid nitrogen at -196°C after slow congelation. To restore ovarian function and because of pregnancy desire, we transplanted the cryopreserved ovarian cortex in the right ovary and inside a pocket of the peritoneum of the left ovarian fossa. The first step included adhesiolysis to treat small adhesions developed after the first surgery. On the right, the ovarian cortex was opened by an antimesial incision with cold scissors. The cryopreserved ovarian cortex was placed through the cortex of the right ovary and fixed with stitches. On the left side, the peritoneum of the ovarian fossa was opened, and a subperitoneal pocket was dissected. The cortex was inserted. It was then closed with absorbable sutures or with a hemostatic pad. Six months after her surgery, the patient had natural cycles. We monitored an ovulation of both the sides. She underwent 3 in vitro fertilizations but with failures of embryo transfer. She conceived spontaneously a year after the surgery. She gave birth to a healthy child weighing 3300 g. CONCLUSION For patients who have suffered from premature ovarian failure owing to chemotherapy, ovarian cortex transplantation can restore the ovulatory function, allow in vitro fertilization, and permit, as in our case, a spontaneous pregnancy.

Abstract
RESEARCH QUESTION Is luteal phase stimulation capable of improving fertility preservation? MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of consecutive ovarian stimulations, during July 2012 and September 2018 at Strasbourg University Teaching Hospital in France. Enrollment criteria were patients aged below 40 who had been referred to our center following a diagnosis of cancer or requiring gonadotoxic treatment. All patients enrolled had regular menstrual cycles and normal ovulation. Non-enrollment criteria were an expected low ovarian response (defined by an anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level <0.75μg/L and/or an antral follicle count inferior (AFC) inferior than 5), polycystic ovarian syndrome, amenorrhea, prior history of infertility or gonadotoxic treatment. The primary endpoint is the number of mature oocytes (metaphase II) obtained. Secondary outcomes were oocyte yields obtained, stimulation duration, initial gonadotropin dose and total gonadotropin dose. RESULTS A total of 100 patients were included: 20 in luteal phase and 80 in follicular phase. A larger number of mature oocytes was obtained in luteal phase versus follicular phase (13.1+/8.0 versus 9.2+/-5.8 with p=0.01). A greater amount of total (mature and immature) oocytes was obtained in luteal phase versus follicular phase with a significant difference (16.8+/-9.3 versus 11.8+/-7.3 with p=0.01). No difference was found for the initial and total doses of gonadotropin. CONCLUSIONS Luteal phase stimulation has the advantage of a better flexibility with positives results as to the number of oocytes obtained in fertility preservation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a modern technique of fertility preservation, useful before using ovariotoxic therapies in the treatment of breast cancer. The aim of our literature review was to study ovarian cryopreservation experiences for women with breast cancer, to identify guidelines, constraints and results in the oncological and obstetrical fields. METHODS We searched articles through the PubMed/Medline database, including all French and English references from January 2000 to October 2017. The combination of key words "breast cancer" and "ovarian tissue cryopreservation" allowed us to select 50 articles. We kept 18 publications which matched our subject. RESULTS Sixteen cases of ovarian transplants among patients treated for breast cancer were published with 14 pregnancies, 11 births and 3 failures. Two cases of breast recurrences were published after ovarian grafting. However, the hindsight in this technique is limited, with a first transplant published in 2004 and only a low number of cases. PERSPECTIVES A national census and comprehensive gathering of data among the patients treated for breast cancer using ovarian tissue cryopreservation would make it possible to better evaluate the occurrence of pregnancies and the carcinological risk of this technique.

Abstract
Benign ovarian tumors occur in 7% of women during their procreative years and involve both organic and functional tumors. The average age of onset for borderline ovarian tumors is ten years younger than that for ovarian cancers. Women with benign and borderline malignant ovarian tumors are therefore more likely to be affected by fertility issues. The causal link between infertility and benign ovarian tumor stems more from the therapeutic strategies adopted than from the histological nature of the benign ovarian tumor. The question of fertility preservation must therefore be addressed in the management of these patients through respect for "correct" surgical indications, through gestures centered around ovarian preservation, and finally, if necessary, by recourse to fertility preservation techniques.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The principal outcome was to assess the ovarian response to controlled hyperstimulation during in vitro fertilization (IVF) with or without micro-injection (ICSI) in patients whom ovarian reserve testing revealed a discrepancy between the serum levels of FSH and AMH. The secondary outcome was to determine whether AMH and FSH profiles could predict the IVF/ICSI response. STUDY DESIGN This was a multicenter, retrospective study analysing all controlled ovarian hyperstimulation cycles with attempted fresh embryo transfer(s) carried out during IVF/ICSI treatment and in which the AMH level had been assayed between January 01, 2008 and December 31, 2011. This enabled us to form 2 control groups (NOR, normal ovarian reserve: normal AMH and FSH and DOR, diminished ovarian reserve: diminished AMH, increased FSH) and 2 study groups (DAMH: diminished AMH, normal FSH and NAMH: normal AMH, increased FSH). The principal assessment criterion was quantitative ovarian response to stimulation defined by the mean number of oocytes punctured, the secondary assessment criterion the qualitative response to stimulation defined by the pregnancy rate per cycle. RESULTS We were able to analyse 1803 stimulation cycles. The mean number of oocytes punctured was significantly reduced in the DAMH and DOR groups compared to the NAMH and NOR groups (5.2±3.9 and 4.1±3.3 vs. 11.5±7 and 9.5±5.6, respectively [P<0.01]). The pregnancy rate per initiated cycle was significantly reduced in the DAMH and DOR groups compared to the NAMH and NOR groups (20% and 24% vs. 32 and 35%, respectively [P<0.01]). Live birth rates did not differ between the groups however. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression revealed that AMH, FSH and age independently had an effect on the number of oocytes punctured, although the effect exerted by AMH seemed to be preponderant (OR: 2.75: 95%CI [2.39-3.19]). AMH appeared to be the sole factor independently predictive of pregnancy per cycle. CONCLUSION The serum AMH level appears to provide an additional item of discriminatory information, which should not be overlooked. Ovarian reserve work-up should include routine AMH assay.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Comparing rates of pregnancy and childbirth between IUI at either 24 or 48hours after injection of HCG. METHODS This is a single-center retrospective study of couples who underwent intrauterine insemination between January 2013 and December 2014 at Medical-Surgical Obstetrical Centre of Schiltigheim. Stimulation of ovulation was done by FSH or HMG, and ovulation induction by 250μg of recombinant HCG. The insemination was performed after 2 days (group D2) or the day after (group D1). RESULTS Among the 1092 intrauterine insemination cycles included in our study, 62 were done the day after ovulation induction by HCG (D1), and 1030 the day after (D2). Our study showed no significant difference in the rate of biological pregnancy, defined by a rate of BHCG>15IU/L, between the group D1 (19.35%) and the group D2 (18.12%), P=0.94, and no difference in live birth rate: respectively 14,50% and 11.75%, P=0.18. CONCLUSION Our study reported similar rates of pregnancy and childbirth in the group who underwent IUI at D1 and D2 of ovulation induction, suggesting the possibility of IUI on day 1 when the organization of the service needs it, without loss of opportunity for pregnancy.

Abstract
A recent adverse effect of a paracervical block (cardiac arrest) occurred during an oocyte retrieval (OR), forcing us to reconsider our pain management during OR. Since then, we decided to use intravaginal lidocaine gel as analgesia during OR. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the pain during OR after intravaginal lidocaine gel analgesia and to evaluate the motivations of women choosing this technique. METHODS A monocentric observational study was performed on 200 patients. Pain was measured using a numeric pain scale during and after oocyte retrieval. The tolerance of the procedure was evaluated through a patient questionnaire. RESULTS Median maximal pain was 5±2.3 (0-10) per-retrieval and 3±2.2 (0-10) post-retrieval. The procedure was considered bearable by 85.5% of the patients and 81.5% of them would choose this method in case of new oocyte retrieval. No adverse effect occurred during the study. CONCLUSION The use of intravaginal lidocaine gel seems an acceptable analgesia alternative during oocyte retrieval.

Abstract
Fragile X syndrome (FraX) is caused by the expansion of an unstable CGG repeat located in the Fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1) gene. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) can be proposed to couples at risk of transmitting the disease, that is, when the female carries a premutation or a full mutation. We describe two new single-cell, single-round multiplex PCR for indirect and direct diagnosis of FraX on biopsied embryos. These tests include five unpublished, highly heterozygous simple sequence repeats, and the co-amplification of non-expanded CGG repeats for the direct test. Heterozygosity of the new markers ranged from 69 to 81%. The mean rate of non-informative marker included in the tests was low (26% and 23% for the new indirect and direct tests, respectively). This strategy allows offering a PGD for FraX to 96% of couples requesting it in our centre. A conclusive genotype was obtained in all cells with a rate of cells presenting an allele dropout ranging from 17% for the indirect test to 26% for the direct test. The new indirect test was applied for eight PGD cycles: 32 embryos were analysed, 9 were transferred and 3 healthy babies were born. By multiplexing these highly informative markers, robustness of the diagnosis is improved and the loss of potentially healthy embryos (because they are non-diagnosed or misdiagnosed) is limited. This may increase the chances of success of couples requesting a PGD for FraX, in particular, when premature ovarian insufficiency in premutated women leads to a reduced number of embryos available for analysis.

Abstract
We report two cases of amniotic fluid embolism, confirmed by histological examination. Both patients had an immediate post-partum haemorrhage that required an haemostatic hysterectomy. A typical symptomatology of amniotic fluid embolism revelated the first case. The patient survived without any sequelae. In the second case, amniotic fluid embolism occurred immediately after the delivery. The patient developed an acute respiratory distress with a shock syndrome. Despite haemostatic hysterectomy and resuscitative efforts, she died 6 days later.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Globozoospermia is a severe form of teratozoospermia characterized by round-headed sperm with an absence of acrosomes. Family cases of globozoopermia suggest that this pathology has genetic origins, but the mode of inheritance remains unknown. So far, no responsible genes have been identified. Recently, a mouse lacking the casein kinase IIalpha' (encoded by the Csnk2a2 gene) was described. This mutant mouse presents a single phenotype reminiscent of that seen in human globozoospermia. Interestingly, the fission yeast orthologue (orb5) exhibits, when mutated, a spherical phenotype. Casein kinase II is a heterotetramer, composed of two catalytic subunits alpha or alpha' and two regulatory beta subunits (encoded by the Csnk2b gene). METHODS AND RESULTS Based on the evolution conservation, phenotypes observed in mouse and yeast mutant and the structure of casein kinase II, we analysed Csnk2a2 and Csnk2b genes in six patients with globozoospermia and 10 fertile controls. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and PCR was performed to amplify Csnk2a2 and Csnk2b genes before sequencing. CONCLUSION No mutation was identified among these six patients. Further work is needed, with a larger patient data set, to identify putative genes involved in this form of male infertility.

Abstract
Acute, insulated hydrothorax can be observed after ovulation induction without other signs of hyperstimulation. Usually, it is unilateral, localized on the right side and associated with ongoing pregnancy. We regularly noted a good outcome although the pathogenesis of this affection is still enigmatic. It may recur in the case of a new ovarian stimulation.
