Abstract
ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) has been the treatment of choice in severe tubal infertility &for most other indications (male factors, ovarian dysfunction, tubal disease, endometriosis and uterine or cervical factors); ICSI is applied as the last resort therapy of infertility after the failure of other treatment modalities.
Transferring the embryos into the uterine cavity is the last and the most critical step in ICSI; it is routinely done through the transcervical route and is associated with multiple potential negative factors.
Implantation is the final and most crucial step in ICSI, but also the least successful, as a few embryos replaced in the uterine cavity will result in a clinical pregnancy. The majority of women undergoing ICSI will reach embryo transfer (ET) stage, with good quality embryos available for transfer, but only a small proportion of them will ever achieve a clinical pregnancy or live birth.
The most important factor for successful embryo transfer is not touching the endometrium of the fundus with replacement of the embryo in the lumen of the uterine cavity.
The aim of the work was to study the effect of the depth of embryo transfer into the uterine cavity on the success of ICSI cycle.
This study was included 50 women undergoing ICSI cycle and was divided into two groups: Group I: were included 25 cases in which the depth of embryo transfer was not measured. Group II: were included 25 cases in which the depth of embryo transfer was measured.
