Abstract

Objective: The introduction of ICSI for the treatment of severe male factor infertility has raised concerns that relate to the aggressiveness of the procedure and the way in which fertilization is accomplished. Recently, it has been reported that assisted reproductive technologies, both ICSI and IVF, independent of the gestational order, produce premature babies with a reduced birthweight and a higher incidence of neonatal malformation compared to natural conception. In this study, we compare obstetrical and neonatal outcomes between ICSI and spontaneously conceived singleton pregnancies.
