What is ICSI ?
When is ICSI indicated?
What is the difference between IVF and ICSI?
How does a sperm normally fertilize an egg?
As they travel through the fallopian tubes, sperms gain the ability to fertilize an egg . They undergo two processes: capacitation, where its outer layer is changed, and hyperactivation, which changes the way the sperm’s tail moves .To enter the egg, the sperm has to break through a group of cells known as the cumulus oophorus that surround the egg. The sperm dissolves these cells using an enzyme ,acrosin. Once a sperm has penetrated an egg, this membrane changes, and becomes impenetrable to other sperm. It then fuses with the DNA of the egg to form the zygote.
How is the ICSI procedure done?
The ICSI procedure requires much attention and high concentration and is done by experienced embryologists with the help of the ICSI micromanipulator machine.It starts with the identification of patients: eggs and sperm. Then, in separate droplets, sperm cells and eggs are placed onto the same culture plate in the ICSI machine.The egg is stabilized by the larger needle and the sperm is injected by the smaller needle under the microscope with 400 times magnification.
What happens after the ICSI Procedure?
The embryos are formed after the ICSI procedure. They are cultured in the lab for 2-5 days. They are then transferred into the uterus.
How can we improve ICSI results?
What is IMSI?
IMSI is intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperms. By this sperms are chosen under 6000 times magnification. It is supposed to produce better quality embryos and pregnancy outcomes. However, recent studies are yet to confirm this supposition.
What is the incidence of congenital malformations with ICSI?
Is ICSI better than IVF ?
ICSI is indicated in those patients where there is male factor infertility and previous fertilization failure. It is not indicated in all IVF cases and it does not improve pregnancy outcome when used in non- indicated cases.
