Oocyte morphology predicts outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection
1 Jun 1997
Abstract excerpt
To examine the influence of cytoplasmic morphology on the success rate of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), the morphology of 837 metaphase II oocytes was assessed after cumulus stripping. The main abnormalities detected were excessive granularity, cytoplasmic inclusions such as vacuoles, smooth endoplasmic reticulum clustering and refractile bodies. Microinjection was performed in 538 oocytes with normal...
