  1. Does endometriosis effect implantation? Bilgin GURATES, MD

  2. IMPLANTATION IS OR IS NOT AFFECTED BY ENDOMETRIOSIS • It’s a common disease and an enigmatic disease • This database gives us the dimension of this problem, which is a huge problem, • Many different experimental moldels, even animal models, that show that, this disease decreses fertility.

  3. THE MECHANISM OF INFERTILITY • Altered folliculogenesis, • Ovulatory dysfunction, • Hyperprolactinemia, • Luteal phase defect, • Accelerated ovumtransport, • Sperm phagocytosis, • Impaired fertilization, • Embryotoxicity againstearly embryonic development, • Defective implantation

  4. IMPLANTATION • Embryo quality, • This is a high indicator of how pregnancy rates can be more or less. • Endometrial receptivity, • Which is a crucial event. • Transfer efficiency, • That it is actually very important step in the implantation rate. control of hyper stimulation

  5. Presence of Endometriosis Decreases PregnancyRates • Padigas K, Fertil Steril 1996 • Kodama H, Fertil Steril 1996 • Guzick DS, Fertil Steril 1994 • Adamson GD, SeminReprod Endocrinol 1997 • Tummon IS, Fertil Steril 1997 • Falcone T, Curr Opin Obstet Gynecol 1996 • Lu PY, Mayo Clinic Proc1995 • Without • assisted reproductive technologies or • with ovulation induction

  11. Impaired parameters • Number of oocytes retrieved, • Peak E2 concentration, • Fertilizationrate, • PR, and • IR Poor oocyte quality Defective implantation capacity

  12. ENDOMETRIAL RECEPTIVENESS • Theoretically, endometriosis might affect endometrial receptivenessby altering the • local biochemical environment • paracrine • endocrine • immune response.

  13. ENDOMETRIOSIS IN OOCYTE RECIPIENTS • Simon C, Gutierrez A, Vidal A, de los Santos MJ, Tarın JJ, Remohı J,et al. Outcome of patients with endometriosis in assisted reproduction:results from in-vitro fertilization and oocyte donation. Hum Reprod1994;9:725–9. • Sung L, Mukherjee T, Takeshige T, Bustillo M, Copperman A. Endometriosisis not detrimental to embryo implantation in oocyte recipients.J Assist Reprod Genet 1997;14:152–6. • Dıaz I, Navarro J, Blasco L, Simon C, Pellicer A, Remohı J. Impact ofstage III–IV endometriosis on recipients of sibling oocytes: matchedcase-control study. Fertil Steril 2000;74:31–4.

  14. OOCYTE DONATION IN PATIENTS WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS n=178 retrospective low response (n = 77) endometriosis (n = 10) premature ovarian failure (n = 54), No differencepregnancy rate per woman, per cycle, per implantation. SIMÓN, C. 1994. Hum. Reprod.

  15. OOCYTE DONATION IN PATIENTS WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS 239 oocyte recipient retrospective without endometriosis (n = 184). Endometriosis ( n = 55) pregnancy rates (28 versus 29%) implantation rates (12 and 13%) Sung L,.J Assist Reprod Genet 1997

  16. Impact of stage III–IV endometriosis onrecipients of siblingoocytes: matchedcase-control study N=25 stage III–IV endometriosis (n=25) Healthy recipient (n =33) Israel Dı´az,Fertility and Sterility 2000

  17. IVF IN PATIENTS WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS Pregnancy rate per cycle (34.4%vs. 12.5% ; p<0.0004) Pregnancy per transfer (37.3%vs. 15.1% ; p <0.002) Implantation rate (13.4%vs. 5.8%; p <0.003) Decreases Number of blastomeres Arrested embryos 78 women 59 women Infertility outcome comparing endometriosis and tubal infertility.

  19. OOCYTE DONATION IN PATIENTS WITH ENDOMETRIOSIS Grup 1(n=44) Grup 11(n=14) Grup 111(n=16) ENDO(-) ENDO(-) ENDO(+) DONORS ENDO(+) ENDO(-) ENDO(-) RECIPIENTS 60 % 61.4 % 28.6 % Preg Rate Per Tansfer Pellicer, 1994

  20. Follicular-oocyte-embryo quality in endometriosis • Ovlatory dysfonction (Tummon 1988) • Pituitary-ovarian axis (Chaill 1995) • Over production of progesterone (Pellicer 1998) • IL-6 IL-1β, VEGF (Pellicer 1998) • Apoptosis (Toya 2000) • PGF2 (Bergqvist 1997) • MIS (Fallat 1997) • Inhibins A ,inhibins B, activin B (Akande 2000) • Endothelin-1 , (Abea 1994)

  21. Conclusions • Clinic evidence using the oocyte donation model strongly suggest that the endometrium is NOT altered in women with endometriosis. • In-vitro studies on the endometrium of endometriosis patients do not support the hypothesis of an altered endometrial environment. • Rather, decrease oocyte /embryo quality seems to be cause of endometriosis related infertility .

  22. Conclusions • None of the alterations described in the in-vitro studies is relevant for endometrial receptiveness. • Endometrial priming protocols used in OD cycles reestablishan adequate uterine cavity environment. • GnRHa restores the normal apoptotic rate.(Imai A, Am J ObstetGynecol 2000) • 3-monthcourse of GnRH-a(Surrey ES,FertilSteril 2002) • Artificial endometrial priming for OD could be beneficialin that down-regulation and the exogenous supply of Eand P(Cunha-Filho JS, J Assist ReprodGenet 2003) • Pinopode formationwith artificial priming has been demonstrated to be normalin these patients(Garcıa-Velasco JA,FertilSteril2001) • A questionthat remains to be answered concerns the endometrialreceptiveness of these patients in natural cycles.
