Abstract
Peritoneal oocyte and sperm transfer (POST) was performed under ultrasound guidance and local anesthesia by the transabdominovesical route for a patient with unexplained infertility. This resulted in an intrauterine pregnancy confirmed by a raised β-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) level and an ultrasound scan.
