Chromosome testing strategies, such as preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy PGT-A , improve initial IVF outcomes by avoiding unwitting transfer of aneuploid embryos in morphology-based selection practices. Newer technologies have revealed that some embryos may appear to have intermediate whole chromosome or parts of a chromosome termed segmental copy number results suggesting trophectoderm mosaicism. An embryo with a trophectoderm mosaic-range result may be the only option for transfer for some patients. Recent data suggest that such mosaic embryos can be transferred without added risk of abnormal birth outcomes but may be associated with increased implantation failure and miscarriage rates, with higher values of mosaicism appearing to be less favourable for producing good outcomes. In this Position Statement, we provide guidance to laboratories, clinics, clinicians and counsellors to assist in discussions on the utility and transfer of mosaic embryos. Keywords: Embryo transfer; Mosaicism; Preimplantation genetic testing.

Newer technologies have revealed that some embryos may appear to have intermediate whole chromosome or parts of a chromosome termed segmental copy number results suggesting trophectoderm TE mosaicism. Recent data suggests that such mosaic embryos can be transferred without added risk of abnormal birth outcomes. Some published research suggests that mosaic embryo transfers are associated with increased implantation failure and miscarriage rates Figure 1 with higher values of mosaicism appearing to be less favorable for producing good outcomes for the patient although there are only a few controlled studies examining this possibility. Transfer of lower range mosaic embryos have variable reports with some groups suggesting outcomes similar to euploid embryos Capalbo et al. Data are still limited regarding outcome of mosaic embryo transfers, but information on outcomes with follow up exists on over cases. In this Position Statement we provide guidance to laboratories, clinics, clinicians and counsellors to assist in discussions regarding the utility and transfer of mosaic embryos. Transfer of a euploid embryo has demonstrated improved rates for implantation, pregnancy and live birth over aneuploid embryos Tiegs et al. Comprehensive chromosome analysis Fragouli et al. Earlier stage biopsy and its greater potential for reduction in embryo outcomes has been discontinued in most clinics.

The use of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy PGT-A : a committee opinion. Additional information was derived from using bioinformatics of single-cell analyses in human blastocyst-stage embryos. Such low concordance is, however, exactly what one would expect with sporadic clonal distribution of aneuploid cells in trophectoderm. Orvieto et al. Real concordance, therefore, must be significant lower. Zech, , Bregenz, Austria. We use cookies to optimize our website and our service. Schattman advocated that its use be curtailed to clinical trials in efforts to potentially identify subgroups who, after all, may benefit from PGT-A [ 9 ].

Funding The Center for Human Reproduction provided administrative support, partially funded by the Foundation for Reproductive Medicine, a no-for-profit research foundation. This downward trend over the past decade has paralleled a marked increase in the use of preimplantation genetic testing PGT-A and of other so-called add-ons to IVF.

The Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis International Society PGDIS was organized in October , with the purpose of encouraging and coordinating research, education and training in this multidisciplinary field, requiring a close collaboration of obstetricians, fertility specialists, embryologists and human geneticists.

Continuous post-blastocyst-stage self-correction of experimentally induced aneuploid embryos in the mouse added significantly to the conversation about genetic plasticity [ 13 ]. With clonal distribution, the number of biopsied cells would have to be even larger, clinically an impossible task, if embryos are to survive the biopsy. Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy versus morphology as selection criteria for single-frozen-thawed embryo transfer in good-prognosis patients: a multicenter randomized clinical trial. Reanalysis of human blastocysts with different molecular genetic screening platforms reveals significant discordance in ploidy status. Not even noninvasive cell-free DNA can rescue preimplantation genetic testing. Reprod Biol Endocrinol 18 , 57 An embryo with a trophectoderm mosaic-range result may be the only option for transfer for some patients. Here presented conclusions are based on six difficult to refute facts: i The hypothesis that PGT-A improves pregnancy and live birth chances in association with IVF and reduces miscarriages, appears no longer sustainable [ 7 , 10 ]. To develop evidence of benefit i. Other Organizers. Orvieto et al. Summary and conclusions As increasing discomfort is being expressed with the number of unvalidated add-ons to IVF over the last decade, the primary motivation for this communication has been a growing concern about worldwide exponential increases in PGT-A utilization, likely the single most consequential add-on.
