Two Successful Deliveries after 6 and 13 Years from 10 Oocytes Vitrified for Fertility Preservation in a Then 20-Year-Old Patient with PH-Positive Acute Lymphoid Leukemia

Fertility & Reproduction, 2020
Oocyte vitrification is one of the methods for preserving fertility of cancer patients. In 2013, we reported a successful live birth using cryopreserved oocytes from a patient who contracted Ph-positive acute lymphoid leukemia at the retrieval age of 20.

Loss‐of‐Function Variants in CCDC189 Cause Human Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia by Disrupting Sperm Flagellar and Acrosomal Architecture

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT), characterized by reduced sperm count, impaired motility, and abnormal morphology, is a major cause of male infertility with substantial genetic heterogeneity. However, the underlying genetic etiology remains unresolved in a large proportion of affected individuals.

Conventional Magnification Suffices for High-quality Sperm Selection When Embryologist Experience Is Optimized: A Comparison with MSOME [PDF]

Journal of Genetic Resources
The ability to choose the appropriate sperm is essential to enhance the assisted reproductive technologies results. This study evaluated the performance of five embryologists in selecting sperm using conventional magnifications.

Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Prevalence of Spermatozoa in the Ejaculate of Adolescents With Klinefelter Syndrome: Implications for Fertility Counseling

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is the most common genetic cause of male infertility and is associated with nonobstructive azoospermia. Advances in surgical sperm retrieval techniques have enabled biological fatherhood in a subset of men with KS.

Sperm Selection Using Micro Swim‐Up: Improvement of Chromatin Integrity Compared to Density Gradient Centrifugation

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Selecting high‐quality spermatozoa with optimal nuclear integrity is a crucial step in assisted reproductive technologies (ART). While density gradient centrifugation (DGC) is widely used, the associated centrifugation steps may induce cell stress, potentially damaging sperm DNA.

Children Born Using Ejaculated Sperm From Men With Klinefelter Syndrome. Is Sperm Production Associated With Testicular Volume?

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A large number of children have been born using testicular sperm from men with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), whereas reports of children conceived using ejaculated sperm are rare. Objective To review all published cases of children conceived using ejaculated sperm from men with KS, assess their health and karyotype, and evaluate ...

Comparison of the clinical outcomes between conventional intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and PIEZO-ICSI in women undergoing the first cycle of in-vitro fertilization.

PLoS ONE
The effectiveness of PIEZO-ICSI (P-ICSI) compared to conventional ICSI (C-ICSI) is still controversial. The only confirmed effectiveness of P-ICSI compared to C-ICSI is that it can reduce the number of degenerated oocytes after ICSI.
