Extended culture up to the blastocyst stage: a strategy to avoid multiple pregnancies in assisted reproductive technologies
The aim of this study was to review the experience and outcomes of assisted reproduction cycles with embryos grown up to day 5 of development, comparing different parameters according to the ages of the patients. We retrospectively studied 1,874 assisted reproduction cycles where embryo culture was...
