ICSI - Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection
|
|
Many sperm abnormalities may be overcome in the IVF
laboratory with ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection), which is
included at no charge with the standard pre-paid IVF cycle
package at the Follas Center. With this procedure, the
embryologist selects a normal-appearing sperm, loads it into a
glass micropipette, and injects it into the egg. If ICSI is planned,
genetic counseling is advised to individually assess any possible
increased risks of transferring any abnormalities to the male
offspring after a successful IVF cycle.
