Detailed investigation into the cytogenetic constitution and pregnancy outcome of replacing mosaic blastocysts detected with the use of high-resolution next-generation sequencing.

TLDR
The results suggest that embryos with >40% abnormal cells and those with multiple mosaic abnormalities (chaotic mosaics) are likely to have lower OIRs and should be given low transfer priority.

Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy versus morphology as selection criteria for single frozen-thawed embryo transfer in good-prognosis patients: a multicenter randomized clinical trial.

TL;DR: There was a significant increase in OPR per embryo transfer with the use of PGT-A in the subgroup of women aged 35-40 years who had two or more embryos that could be biopsied, but this was not significant when analyzed by ITT.

Forty years of IVF

Craig Niederberger, +71 more
TL;DR: This monograph, written by the pioneers of IVF and reproductive medicine, celebrates the history, achievements, and medical advancements made over the last 40 years in this rapidly growing field.
Journal ArticleDOI

One hundred mosaic embryos transferred prospectively in a single clinic: exploring when and why they result in healthy pregnancies.

TL;DR: After euploid embryos, mosaic embryos can be considered for transfer, prioritizing those of the single segmental mosaic type, and preference should be given to those made at younger ages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of aneuploidy concordance between clinical trophectoderm biopsy and blastocyst

TL;DR: The findings of this study refer specifically to a clinical trophectoderm biopsy predicting aneuploidy in the remaining blastocyst, and cannot be extrapolated to deduce the ability of a TE biopsy to predict euploidY in the Blastocyst.

Embryo morphology, developmental rates, and maternal age are correlated with chromosome abnormalities*

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in morphologically and developmentally normal human embryos, cleavage-stage aneuploidy significantly increases with maternal age, and the results suggest that implantation failure in older women largely could be due to aneuPLoidy.

Embryo morphology, developmental rates, and maternal age are correlated with chromosome abnormalities**Presented at the 50th Annual Meeting of The American Fertility Society, San Antonio, Texas, November 4 to 9, 1994, where it was awarded the prize paper of the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in morphologically and developmentally normal human embryos, cleavage-stage aneuploidy significantly increases with maternal age, and the results suggest that implantation failure in older women largely could be due to aneuPLoidy.

Healthy Babies after Intrauterine Transfer of Mosaic Aneuploid Blastocysts

TL;DR: Implantation of 18 mosaic aneuploid blastocysts obtained through in vitro fertilization into 18 women resulted in six pregnancies of normal karyotype, with the birth of six healthy babies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental ability of chromosomally abnormal human embryos to develop to the blastocyst stage

TL;DR: Even though there is a strong selection against chromosomally abnormal embryos, extended culture to day 5 or 6 cannot be used as a reliable tool to select against clinically relevant chromosome abnormalities such as trisomies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mouse model of chromosome mosaicism reveals lineage-specific depletion of aneuploid cells and normal developmental potential

TL;DR: It is shown that mosaic embryos have full developmental potential, provided they contain sufficient euploid cells, a finding of significance for the assessment of embryo vitality in the clinic.
