Chromosome testing strategies, such as preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy PGT-A , improve initial IVF outcomes by avoiding unwitting transfer of aneuploid embryos in morphology-based selection practices. Newer technologies have revealed that some embryos may appear to have intermediate whole chromosome or parts of a chromosome termed segmental copy number results suggesting trophectoderm mosaicism. An embryo with a trophectoderm mosaic-range result may be the only option for transfer for some patients. Recent data suggest that such mosaic embryos can be transferred without added risk of abnormal birth outcomes but may be associated with increased implantation failure and miscarriage rates, with higher values of mosaicism appearing to be less favourable for producing good outcomes. In this Position Statement, we provide guidance to laboratories, clinics, clinicians and counsellors to assist in discussions on the utility and transfer of mosaic embryos.

The Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis International Society PGDIS was organized in October , with the purpose of encouraging and coordinating research, education and training in this multidisciplinary field, requiring a close collaboration of obstetricians, fertility specialists, embryologists and human geneticists. One of the major tasks of PGDIS is to advance the safety and accuracy of PGD and to encourage its adoption into clinical practice for improvement of genetic practices and reproductive medicine. In this context, PGDIS published voluntary guidelines applicable for any center offering PGD in , and these guidelines are now being updated and extended based on the present extensive PGD experience. The application of these guidelines is intended to further benefit patients and provide guidance to the laboratory staff. The document contains recent consensus points of general application that promote quality biopsy procedures and laboratory practice, enabling PGD centers to offer an improved clinical outcome to their patients. A variety of aspects related to a safe working system have been taken into consideration, based on the assumption that a quality program depends on the cooperation of the whole PGD team.

Newer technologies have revealed that some embryos may appear to have intermediate whole chromosome or parts of a chromosome termed segmental copy number results suggesting trophectoderm TE mosaicism. Recent data suggests that such mosaic embryos can be transferred without added risk of abnormal birth outcomes. Some published research suggests that mosaic embryo transfers are associated with increased implantation failure and miscarriage rates Figure 1 with higher values of mosaicism appearing to be less favorable for producing good outcomes for the patient although there are only a few controlled studies examining this possibility. Transfer of lower range mosaic embryos have variable reports with some groups suggesting outcomes similar to euploid embryos Capalbo et al. Data are still limited regarding outcome of mosaic embryo transfers, but information on outcomes with follow up exists on over cases. In this Position Statement we provide guidance to laboratories, clinics, clinicians and counsellors to assist in discussions regarding the utility and transfer of mosaic embryos. Transfer of a euploid embryo has demonstrated improved rates for implantation, pregnancy and live birth over aneuploid embryos Tiegs et al. Comprehensive chromosome analysis Fragouli et al. Earlier stage biopsy and its greater potential for reduction in embryo outcomes has been discontinued in most clinics. Sensitive technologies such as array CGH and NGS based methods can variably distinguish uniform aneuploidies affecting all cells in the biopsy from mosaic aneuploidies affecting only some of the cells in the biopsy.

Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy versus morphology as selection criteria for single-frozen-thawed embryo transfer in good-prognosis patients: a multicenter randomized clinical trial. Their detection in a single biopsy of TE must, therefore, be considered a random-chance event and mosaicism must be significantly underreported when solely based on single trophectoderm biopsies. Some of this optimism may, however, on biological grounds be questioned [ 34 ], as recent evidence suggests that chromosomal diversity in early embryo stages likely offers evolutionary advantage.

It is responsible for the presented consensus statement, which as a final document was reached after review of the pertinent literature and again revised after the recent publication of the STAR trial and related commentaries. Current definitions of what represents normal, mosaic and aneuploid embryos, must, therefore, also on technical grounds be considered insufficient. Further evidence against use of PGS in poor prognosis patients: report of normal births after transfer of embryos reported as aneuploid. In a quickly arriving era of improving artificial intelligence, one, however, can never rule out surprising advances. This study received considerable attention in the IVF field because it, quite unequivocally, demonstrated that pregnancy rates did not differ, whether embryos had been tested by PGT-A or not. Our critique of this document should not be understood as a critique of the society, its membership or of the journal that published the document but of the process by which conclusions apparently were reached and included into the PGDIS -PS.

The technical storage or access that is used exclusively for statistical purposes. Received : 08 April This concept is not only troubling because of previously noted biological differences between cell lineages in respective abilities to eliminate aneuploid cells i. PGT-A, therefore, not only, in itself, reduces pregnancy chances as pointed out by Paulson [ 5 ], but, secondarily, imposes increased additional interventions with potential negative clinical outcome consequences and financial burden on IVF. Embryo loss from false positive diagnoses will affect poorer-prognosis patients, of course, more severely than good-prognosis patients who can better afford such losses. Interestingly, because Paulson believes that the ineffectiveness of PGT-A is to a large degree caused by damage to embryos during biopsy [ 5 ], he also expressed a degree of optimism that non-invasive PGT-A, using cell-free DNA in spent media for diagnosis [ 33 ], may be more successful. An embryo with a trophectoderm mosaic-range result may be the only option for transfer for some patients. Murtinger 7 , P.

Summary and conclusions As increasing discomfort is being expressed with the number of unvalidated add-ons to IVF over the last decade, the primary motivation for this communication has been a growing concern about worldwide exponential increases in PGT-A utilization, likely the single most consequential add-on. To use such an obviously incorrect statistical outcome assessments as basis for a formal statement in support of outcome benefits from PGT-A is, therefore, inappropriate. View author publications.
