TANGO2 deficiency disorder, a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterised by biallelic loss-of-function variants in the TANGO2 gene, was first described in 2016. This disorder involves the transport and Golgi organisation homologue, impacting Golgi membrane redistribution into the endoplasmic reticulum. Clinically, affected individuals exhibit a multiorgan phenotype, with prominent neurological manifestations such as developmental delay and regression.

Objectives: To study the effect of double trophectoderm biopsy on clinical outcomes following single euploid blastocyst transfer.
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study of 2046 single euploid frozen-thawed blastocyst transfers from January 2015 to June 2022 in a single centre. All patients undergoing a frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FTET) cycle with euploid blastocysts, biopsied for any indication, were included.
