【 摘 要 】

Abdominal cocoon (AC) is a rare condition of uncertain etiology. We report the case of a 29-year-old infertile Chinese woman with AC, who successfully got twin pregnancy and delivery through in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer (ET). And this review discusses the current concepts of its pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatments. AC might lead to tubal infertility and IVF-ET would be the most effective remedy for the patients desiring pregnancy.
