Twin delivery following 12 years of human embryo cryopreservation: case report.
It is uncertain how long IVF units can keep frozen embryos. Few data exist on success of embryo transfer for embryos that have been cryopreserved for many years. We report the delivery of healthy twins following the transfer of embryos cryopreserved for 12 years. To the best of our knowledge, this is the longest reported successful human embryo freezing.
متن کاملMonozygotic twin delivery following reduction from quadramniotic-dichorionic gestation established after ICSI and embryo transfer: Case report.
We report the delivery of healthy monozygous (MZ) twins in a 31 year-old nulligravida following gonadotrophin ovulation induction, ICSI, assisted hatching and fresh embryo transfer. Although a sonogram on day 35 confirmed that two of four transferred embryos had implanted, a second transvaginal sonogram 1 week later showed each gestational sac had two conceptuses-all four were associated with d...
متن کاملHuman Oocyte And Embryo Cryopreservation
The technology so far applied clinically has been based directly on traditional human embryo cryopreservation protocols, and has produced relatively few offspring. Fortunately to date, no abnormalities have been reported from these pregnancies, regardless of the persistent concerns that freezing and thawing of mature oocytes may disrupt the meiotic spindle and thus increase the potential for an...

MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records were reviewed for patients undergoing IVF from 2000-2008 to identify cases at risk for OHSS where cryopreservat...
متن کامل10. Human embryo cryopreservation and its effects on embryo morphology
Cryopreservation may have a variety of effects on embryo morphology, ranging from subtle damage on intracellular organelles, cytoplasm, or processes that can negatively affect normal cell development, to overtly blatant effects such as the lysis of one or more blastomeres. Many underlying factors can influence the outcome of cryopreservation, e.g. the quality of the oocyte or embryo itself will...
