Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to present a case of healthy infant born after intracytoplasmic sperm injection-in vitro fertilization (ICSI-IVF) with preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) using sperm from a man with non-mosaic trisomy 21 and a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 26-year-old euploid female and 29-year-old male with non-mosaic trisomy 21 and male factor undergoing ICSI-IVF treatment for primary infertility with embryo biopsy for PGS with comprehensive chromosomal screening (CCS) presented to the Infertility Clinic at Highland Hospital, the Alameda County Medical Center, California, with 6-year history of primary infertility. The outcome measure is a live birth of a healthy child and ploidy status of biopsied blastocysts. RESULTS: Egg retrieval yielded 33 oocytes, 29 of which underwent ICSI with ejaculated sperm. Twenty-eight 2PN zygotes were cultured, and 13 blastocysts underwent trophectoderm biopsy and vitrification 5 or 6 days after retrieval. CCS analysis revealed that 12 out of 13 (92 %) of blastocysts were euploid and one was a complex abnormal mosaic. Transfer of two grade I hatching blastocysts resulted in a singleton pregnancy with normal prenatal genetic screening and delivery of a healthy male infant at 41 weeks via primary cesarean section for non-reassuring fetal status. CONCLUSION: This is the first report of a live birth of a healthy child after ICSI-IVF with PGS using ejaculated sperm from a man with non-mosaic trisomy 21 and male factor infertility.
