Abstract

Prevention of chromosomal diseases through preimplantation genetic testing is an edge issue of current reproductive medicine and genetics. Embryo testing during in vitro fertilization cycles is designed to eliminate the transfer of aneuploid blastocysts, providing an increased probability of the take home babies, as well as reducing the risks of reproductive losses due to chromosomal abnormalities. The current state of the preimplantation genetic testing, its trends and perspectives are discussed.
