abstract background: the intracytoplasmic sperm injection procedure ending with total fertilization failure is very distressfull event for both the clinician and the patient. objective: the aim of this study was to identify independent factors which could be used to identify total fertilization failure before the day of intracytoplasmic sperm injection. materials and methods: this was a retrosp...

background: the high fertilization failure after ivf treatment cycles could be related to chromosomal abnormalities. this study was carried out to assess the frequency of chromosomal abnormality on human oocytes lacking signs of fertilization 18-20 h after insemination . materials and methods: on day one, 18-20 h after insemination (ivf), fertilization was confirmed when two pronuclei (normal i...

BACKGROUND To gain more insight in whether failure of intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment in patients with idiopathic subfertility could be related to diminished fertilization, the aim of this study is to compare the fertilization of an initial IVF procedure after six cycles of IUI and the fertilization of an initial IVF procedure without preceding IUI cycles in couples with idiopathic su...

Partial or complete fertilization failure after IVF was reported in 5-10% of cycles. Total fertilization failure in patients with normal sperm parameters is rare but very stressful incident after IVF. To rescue the IVF cycles after total fertilization failure, ICSI of unfertilized oocytes after initial insemination has been reported.We reviewed a 2 years experience of rescue ICSI and analyzed t...

INTRODUCTION Some unexplained infertile couples may have fertilization failure; the in vitro fertilization (IVF) with high insemination concentration (HIC) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) were reported to give better fertilization rate when compared to standard IVF procedure. OBJECTIVE To compare the fertilization rate, abnormal fertilization rate, total fertilization failure rate...

With the introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), couples with severe male factor infertility have been able to achieve fertilization and clinical pregnancy rates comparable to other in vitro fertilization patients. However, despite the utilization of microsurgical sperm injection techniques, failure of fertilization still occurs in a few patients. How such fertilization failure...

With the introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), couples with severe male factor infertility have achieved fertilization and clinical pregnancy rates comparable to other in-vitro fertilization (IVF) patients. However, failure of fertilization still occurs in some patients despite the utilization of microsurgical sperm injection techniques. How such fertilization failure after I...
