Abstract

Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), produced by many tissues including the endometrium, ovary and trophoblast, is essential for proper embryo implantation and development of placentation. To determine if the mode of fertilization influenced VEGF production at the time of embryo implantation we compared the release of VEGF into the systemic circulation shortly after embryo transfer in women whose oocytes were fertilized by ICSI or by conventional in-vitro fertilization (IVF).
