Effects of fertilization methods and sperm sources on the developmental capacity of surplus embryos / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the effects of fertilization methods and sperm sources in intra‐cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) on the developmental capacity of surplus embryos .Methods A retrospective study was carried out to compare the blasto‐cyst rate of the surplus embryos from 2 697 patients .According to the fertilization methods ,the embryos were divided into IVF group and ICSI group .According to sperm sources ,the ICSI group was divided into ejaculated group and testicular sperm group . The rates of blastocyst formation and good quality blastocysts were compared between different fertilization methods and sperm sources .Results There were 8 426 embryo developed in 2 697 patients .The blastocyst formation rate of surplus embryos was high‐er in the IVF group(n=1 048 ,53 .18% ) than that in the ICSI group(n=1 378 ,49 .27% ) ,but with no statistically significant differ‐ent(P> 0 .05) .The rates of blastocyst were not statistically significant different between the IVF group and in the rescue ICSI group(P>0 .05) .The rates of blastocyst were not statistically significant different between the ejaculated group and the testicular sperm group(P>0 .05) .Conclusion There were not statistically significant different of the rate of blastocyst between different fer‐tilization methods and sperm sources in ICSI .
