Abstract:
PURPOSE:To compare effectiveness of two different chemical zona thinning techniques. METHOD:We studied 163 patients who had experienced IVF or ICSI failures in two or more cycles. Patients were assigned to one of three groups: zona intact (n=72), partial thinning (n=59), or circumferential thinning (n=73). Before transfer, the zonae pellucidae of embryos were thinned partially or circumferentially using acidified Tyrode's solution. RESULTS:Implantation rates were 8.9% in the intact zona group, 17.6% in the partial thinning group, and 11.9% in the circumferential thinning group: respective clinical pregnancy rates were 16.7% (12/72), 32.2% (19/59), and 27.4% (20/73). Both rates were significantly higher in the partial thinning group than the intact zona group. For circumferential thinning versus zona intact groups, differences fell short of significance. CONCLUSIONS:Following embryo transfer failure, partial thinning would be recommended over circumferential thinning for successful assisted hatching.
