چکیده
In vitro fertilization [5] (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology [6] (ART) initially introduced by Patrick Steptoe [7] and Robert Edwards [8] in the 1970s to treat female infertility [9] caused by damaged or blocked fallopian tubes [10].

IVF is a laboratory procedure in which sperm [11] and egg [12] are fertilized outside the body; the term ?in vitro? is Latin for ?in glass.?
