OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of maternal age on fertilization, embryo quality, and clinical pregnancy in patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) using testicular sperm from partners with azoospermia. METHODS A total of 416 ICSI cycles using testicular spermatozoa from partners with obstructive azoospermia (OA, n=301) and non-obstructive azo...

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has resulted in pregnancy and birth for many couples, including those with severe male factor infertility. However, even after ICSI, complete failure of fertilization occurs in 1-3% of cycles. Most cases occur due to low number of mature oocytes, failure of oocyte activation or non-availability of appropriate spermatozoa for injection. Given the significa...

background: there has been an increase in number of obese infertile females booked for advanced infertility treatment procedures like in vitro fertilization (ivf) and intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi). the knowledge of impact of body mass index (bmi) on reproductive outcome can help to counsel these patients. objective: to compare reproductive outcome in females of different bmi after ic...

Objective: The main detrimental factor in female fertility is maternal age. Clinical pregnancy and live birth rates decline gradually with age this dramatical over 40 years. In study, we examined the vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle outcomes of women aged years over. Study Design: This retrospective study included 336 fresh fertilization/ICSI cycles ≥40 Six groups, str...

Recent progress in cell micromanipulation has made it possible to achieve fertilization even with highly deficient male gametes, by injecting them directly to oocyte cytoplasm. This technique, known as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), has proved efficient in most types of sperm pathology. However, ICSI fails when injected spermatozoa are not capable of supporting the process of oocyte a...

introduction: the aim of this study was to determine the effects of maternal age in fertilization rate of intracytoplasmic sperm injection comparison with ivf. material and methods: in this prospective clinical trial study, 200 couples with male subinfertility that referred to infertility clinic were enrolled. couples were selected on the basis of semen parameters and divided randomly into two ...

s:1454:"Background: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection(ICSI) outcome is tighly depending of male and female factors. The assessment of several clinical and laboratory parameters may predict results of ICSI. Materials and Methods: We restrospectively analysed patients who had ICSI for male or female factor infertility. The clinical and laboratory factors that influenced the fertilization, pregnanc...
