Abstract

The incidence of complications arising from in vitro fertilization and oocyte retrieval is relatively low. Infections, bleeding, and ovarian torsion are the main complications discussed in this review. Physicians and patients need to be aware of these complications at all times during the treatment process. Early diagnosis and proper medical or surgical interventions will lead to a successful resolution in the majority of cases.
