P. Nadkarni et al., WHAT FACTORS PREDETERMINE THE RISK OF HAVING A HIGH-ORDER MULTIPLE PREGNANCY WITH GAMETE INTRAFALLOPIAN TRANSFER, Human reproduction, 11(3), 1996, pp. 655-659
Limiting the number of oocytes transferred at gamete intra-Fallopian t
ransfer (GIFT) has limited the incidence of high-order pregnancy but a
t the same time compromised the fertility potential of some patients,
A review of 300 patients who have undergone GIFT using a flexible appr
oach as to the number of oocytes transferred identifies the patients a
t risk of high-order pregnancy as those aged under 30 years in whom mo
re than six oocytes are returned and whose partner's spermatozoa have
high progressive motility.
