Purpose: To investigate pregnancy outcomes resulting from transfer of embryos with non-mosaic (NM) segmental aneuploid (SA) results following preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A).
Methods: All patients who underwent frozen embryo transfer (FET) of at least one embryo with a NM-SA between March 2021 and April 2024 were retrospectively reviewed. Primary outcomes included live birth rate (LBR) and results of prenatal diagnosis.
Purpose: To examine the effects of age, mature oocyte number, and cycle number on cumulative live birth rates after planned oocyte cryopreservation (OC), with the goal of developing a patient counselling tool.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of all patients with ≥ 1 autologous oocyte thaw at our university-affiliated fertility center before 12/31/2023. Patients were included if they (1) had a live birth or ongoing pregnancy > 12 weeks from OC, or (2) used all oocytes and euploid/untested embryos from OC.
Purpose: Our aim was to evaluate if maternal age at transfer following autologous oocyte cryopreservation is associated with live birth rate (LBR).
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of all patients who thawed autologous oocytes and then underwent a single frozen euploid embryo transfer between 2011 and 2021 at a large urban university-affiliated fertility center. Each oocyte thaw patient was matched 2:1 to in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients who underwent single embryo transfer < 1 year after retrieval.
The objective of this review is to provide an update on planned oocyte cryopreservation. This fertility preservation method increases reproductive autonomy by allowing women to postpone childbearing whilst maintaining the option of having a biological child. Oocyte cryopreservation is no longer considered experimental, and its use has increased dramatically in recent years as more women delay childbearing for personal, professional and financial reasons.

Methods: We performed a retrospective case series of all PGT-M cycles for BRCA variants between 2010-2021 at a large urban academic fertility center. All patients who underwent ≥ 1 cycle of IVF with PGT-M for BRCA1 or BRCA2 were included.
