Women who have transvaginal oocyte retrieval feel nervous and have mild to moderate pain because a needle is used to poke holes in the vaginal skin and ovarian capsule to get the oocytes. The aim of this study is compare between general and spinal anesthesia effect on ICSI outcome . A cross-sectional study was conducted in the High Institute of Infertility Diagnosis and Assisted Reproductive Technologies/ Al-Nahrain University, from first April 2021 to the first of February 2022. Patients were randomized blindly at time of oocyte retrieval for types of anesthesia given: (50 women subjected to spinal anesthesia and 50 women subjected to general anesthesia). All females were subjected to flexible antagonist protocol. Also, all of them had the same surgical procedure by the same physicians. ICSI outcome was compared between the groups. The study showed there was non-significant difference (p>0.05) between the two groups regarding pregnancy rate with higher oocyte number in women subjected to spinal anesthesia than those who were under the general anesthesia although the difference was not statistically significant. The fertilized oocyte number was non significantly higher in spinal anesthesia group than the general anesthesia. So; spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia have comparable ICSI outcome.
