[Microinjection in France: report of the BLEFCO multicentric study]

In order to evaluate the assisted fertilizations in France, BLEFCO association has analysed 436 and 1,781 attempts for SUZI and ICSI respectively. For SUZI, the transfer rate was 62% and the pregnancy per attempt rate was 10%. For ICSI, whatever indications, the transfer rate was 86% and the pregnancy per attempt rate was 21%. ICSI in cases of altered sperm without previous IVF represented 46% of ICSI attempts. No relationship between the transfer rate and the indication of ICSI has been observed. However, in case of unexplained fertilization failures, the pregnancy per attempt rate is significantly lower when compared to the other indications.
