Cryopreservation of human embryos by vitrification or slow freezing: which one is better?

21 May 2009

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize the available evidence from randomized controlled trials comparing vitrification versus slow freezing for cryopreservation of human embryos. RECENT FINDINGS: Vitrification, as compared with slow freezing, appears to be better in terms of postthawing survival rates both for cleavage-stage embryos [odds ratio (OR): 6.35, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.14-35.26, random effects model]...
