Abstract
Objective: To investigate the predictive value of quantitative measurements of blastocyst morphology on subsequent implantation rates after transfer. Design: Prospective observational study. Setting: Private assisted reproductive technology center. Patient(s): One hundred seventy-four IVF patients receiving transfers of expanded blastocyst-stage embryos on day 5 (n = 112) or day 6 (n = 62) afteroocyte retrieval. Intervention(s): None. Main Outcome Measure(s): Blastocyst diameter, number of trophectoderm cells, inner cell mass (ICM) size, ICM shape, and implantation and pregnancy rates. Result(s): Blastocyst diameter and trophectoderm cell numbers were unrelated to implantation rates. Day 5 expanded blastocysts with ICMs of >4,500 mum(2) implanted at a higher rate than did those with smaller ICMs (55% vs. 31%). Day 5 expanded blastocysts with slightly oval ICMs implanted at a higher rate (58%) compared with those with either rounder ICMs (7%) or more elongated ICMs (33%). Implantation rates were highest (71%) for embryos with both optimal ICM size and shape. Pregnancy rates were higher for day 5 transfers of optimally shaped ICMs compared with day 5 transfers of optimally sized ICMs. Conclusion(s): Quantitative measurements of the inner cell mass are highlyindicative of blastocyst implantation potential. Blastocysts with relatively large and/or slightly oval ICMs are more likely to implant than other blastocysts. (Fertil Steril (R) 2001;76:1157-67.
