Among the couples requesting IVF and PGD, because of either a
reciprocal or a Robertsonian translocation, a total of 19 couples
completed OPU cycle. These consisted of 12 couples with reciprocal
translocations (8 male and 4 female carriers) and seven couples
with Robertsonian translocations (1 male and 6 female carriers). In
total, 17 couples went through at least one completed PGD cycle.
The remaining two couples (11%) did not have any embryo biopsy
results due to the lack of good embryos. As a consequence, 38 PGD
cycles from 17 couples were completed
