Abstract

Embryos that are transferred after in vitro fertilization frequently fail to implant in the uterus; in many cases, this failure is due to chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo. The current methods of diagnosis of aneuploidy cannot detect many chromosomal abnormalities. This report on the case of a 38-year-old woman with a long history of infertility describes the use of comparative genomic hybridization to determine that all the chromosomes of a single embryo were free of aneuploidy, resulting in the birth of a healthy infant.
