  • single sperm intracytoplasmic injection

Nota

  • Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in human clinical work involves the injection of an intact, live, spermatozoon into the cytoplasm of a mature oocyte that has been extracted transvaginally. After fertilization occurs, the embryo is transferred into the uterus. This procedure now affords men who were previously thought to be irreversibly infertile the chance to initiate their own biologic pregnancy. Patients with obstructive or secretory azoospermia necessitating the use of epididymal or testicular sperm achieve good fertilization rates after ICSI. After considerable experience with alternative forms of assisted fertilization (partial zona dissection, under zona insemination), direct intracytoplasmic sperm injection was fully adopted as the principal form of assisted fertilization in 1993.
