Chromosomal Analysis of Pre-implantation Embryos: Its Place in Current IVF Practice

ConclusionThe currently available techniques of embryo biopsy have their advantages and shortcomings. Today, preimplantation genetic testing to diagnose a euploid embryo is widely used in clinical practice in couples undergoing IVF ET treatment. By eliminating the transfer of aneuploid embryos, the pregnancy rate improves per embryo transfer and it shortens the time of conception from the start of IVF treatment. We have also discussed the current scenario of the place of PGT-A for routine use in IVF treatment procedure in view of the possible risk of losing euploid embryos due to the shortcoming of the embryo biopsy procedure.
