Vitrification of human mature oocytes in clinical practice.

Abstract:

:Oocyte cryopreservation has long been the focus of unsuccessful efforts to perfect its clinical application. Lately, vitrification has been shown to provide high degrees of success by different research groups. This review attempts to address the efficiency of oocyte vitrification in clinical practice through an analysis of reports of IVF cycles in which embryo transfers have been conducted with vitrified metaphase-II human oocytes.
