Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Families at Risk of Haemophilia: Ten-Year Single-Centre Experience. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic diseases (PGT‐M) is a reproductive option for couples at high risk of transmitting inherited disorders. We report a ten‐year single‐centre PGT‐M experience in families at risk of hemophilia.
