Case Report: The first case of successful pregnancy and live birth following laparoscopic resection of adenomyosis under real-time intraoperative ultrasound elastography guidance
This is the first reported case of a twin pregnancy resulting from vitrified-warmed embryo transfer after elastography-guided laparoscopic adenomyomectomy, culminating in a successful delivery via cesarean section. This technique allows precise resection and mitigates the risks of uterine rupture and placenta accreta spectrum disorders. Although promising, further studies are required to validate the safety and efficacy of this innovative surgical approach.
