#176 : The Relationship Between Blastocyst Morphology and PGD Result

Background and Aims: Blastocyst morphology has been clinically assessed during the selection of blastocyst for transfer and cryopreservation, and the morphological grading scheme has gained wide acceptance. Blastocyst grading according to Gardner et al. (20) early blastocyst, blastocoel less than half of the blastocyst (1AA), blastocyst with blastocoel more than half of the blastocyst (2AA), blastocyst with blastocoel fill the blastocyst (3AA), and Expanded Blastocyst (4AA/4BB/4CC). Morphology blastocyst with good quality determining the success of PGD. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) are routine procedures performed in many in vitro fertilization (IVF) clinics. In patients with genetic or chromosomal abnormalities, PGD is an integral part of the IVF program. This study aims to determine whether embryos with normal blastocyst morphology have euploidy result on the PGD test. Method: Observational research study. Results: Dari 22 embryo blastocyst yang di PGD, 59% embryo euploidy 4AA/4BB, 22,7% embryo low level mosaicism 4AA/4BB, 13% embryo aneuploidy 2AA/3AA and 4,5% embryo multiple aneuploidy 3AA. The result suggested that the euploidy rate of blastocyst grade 4AA was the highest. Conclusion: Based on data, embryo morphology with quality 4AA/4BB show PGD result Euploidy was the highest. Euploidy of embryo is one of the important factors affecting embryo implantation and development. Euploidy of blastocyst during PGD treatment was found to be correlated with morphological assessment (Gardner grade)
