Investigation of fertilization and clinical outcomes following ICSI in patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia

This retrospective study investigated the testicular sperm extraction (TESE)-ICSI outcomes of 9 couples with male Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) between September 2013-December 2017 at one fertility clinic. Two pronuclei (2PN) rate, blastocyst development rate, good-quality blastocyst (Grade 3BB and above on day 5 by the Gardner scale) rate, clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), and live birth rate were investigated and compared between embryos derived from motile testicular spermatozoa, immotile testicular spermatozoa and ejaculated sperm.
