Success in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)- a technique of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) for treatment of infertility -has increased day by day.According to several studies, pregnancies following IVF / ICSI were associated with a series of complications such as an increase in obstetric complications. So identification of the problems, their causes and possible solutions is essential to improve the method. In this descriptive study, 100 pregnancies after IVF /Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)in the IVF Women's Comprehensive Hospital in terms of maternal and fetal adverse effects including ectopic pregnancy, placenta previa, placental abruption, gestational diabetes, multiple pregnancy, bleeding after delivery, Intra Uterine Growth Retardation (IUGR) and delivery method have studied.According to the results,3% of patients found with Ovarian Hyper Stimulation Syndrome (OHSS), 25% of all pregnancies resulted in abortion, 7% Ectopic Pregnancy (EP), 2% fetal abnormalities, 19% of all pregnancies were twins, triplets were 3% of all pregnancies and rate of cesarean delivery showed significantly increase (98%).Current study shows obstetric and perinatal complications in IVF / ICSI pregnancies. Maternal and fetal complications like increased EP, congenital malformation and cesarean rate can be seen after IVF / ICSI fertilization. But the relationships between the phenomenon and the various stages of IVF / ICSI are not clear.
