Morphological and cytogenetic analysis of human giant oocytes and giant embryos

29 Aug 2002

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Giant binuclear oocytes occur with considerable frequency in human ovaries, but their ultimate fate remains unknown. We report the morphology, cytogenetics and developmental potential of human giant oocytes from patients undergoing assisted reproductive technologies. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 44 giant oocytes was collected from patients aged 22-44 years old, with an overall frequency of 0.3%...
