Abstract

International audience; BACKGROUND: Animal studies have demonstrated better embryo development in vivo than in vitro. This pilot study tested the feasibility of using a novel in utero culture system (IUCS) to obtain normal human fertilization and embryo development. METHODS: The IUCS device comprised a perforated silicone hollow tube. The study included 13 patients (
