RBMO Shares New Findings on Cell Number Biopsied During PGT-A
Reproductive BioMedicine Online (RBMO) shared a post on LinkedIn:
“This study investigates the effect on diagnostic and clinical outcomes of the number of trophectoderm cells biopsied during blastocyst-stage PGT-A.
The findings suggest that the diagnostic failure rate may be comparable regardless of the number of cells biopsied, after adjustment for potential confounders in multivariable analyses. Minimizing the number of cells biopsied may reduce embryo injury, supporting the need for standardized biopsy protocols that consider both diagnostic yield and embryo preservation.
The authors say their findings emphasize the need for standardized, evidence-based biopsy protocols that consider both diagnostic yield and embryo preservation.
