Late maturing oocyte rescue in poor-prognosis patients: delayed intracytoplasmic sperm injection results in more viable embryos
Both MI and germinal vesicle oocytes can complete maturation in vitro. Blastocysts produced from these are likely to be chromosomally normal compared with oocytes originally assessed as MII, and result in similar live birth rates. With no differences in birth outcomes, and DICSI increasing overall ART cycle success, this approach has value for poor-prognosis patients.
