Note
- At least one in ten couples of reproductive age is affected by infertility. Tubal disease, ovulatory defects, endometrosis and abnormal physiology are the most common causes of failure to conceive. Many of these disorders can be treated successfully with surgery, ovulation induction or intrauterine insemination, but in selected cases or when there is long-standing intractable infertility, assisted reproductive technology (ART) becomes the treatment of choice. The techniques for assisted reproduction include in vitro fertilization, gamete intrafallopian transfer, zygote intrafallopian transfer, embryo cryopreservation and other related procedures. The most recent and successful approach entails the direct microinjection of a single spermatozoon into the ooplasm: intracytoplasmic sperm injection. (Source : INRA)
