Abstract
After a cryopreservation period of 8 years, four zygotes were thawed and tr ansferred to the patient's uterine cavity, A singleton pregnancy resulted i n the delivery of a normal male. This case report offers evidence that long terms of cryopreservation are consistent with full developmental potential post-than: and encourages further examination of imposing limits on length of storage of frozen concepti.
