SNP microarray-based PGS significantly improves the clinical outcome for translocation carriers

ABSTRACT: This was a retrospective comparison study of SNP-based preimplantation genetic screening (SNP-PGS) and FISH-based preimplantation genetic diagnosis (FISH-PGD) for 575 couples in total with chromosome translocations, including 169 couples treated by SNP-PGS between October 2011 and August 2012, and 406 couples treated by FISH- PGD between January 2005 and October 2011. In total, 773 blastocysts obtained from 169 couples were biopsied and frozen, embryo transfer was carried out on the balanced embryos. The PGS results and pregnancy outcomes were compared with those of FISH-PGD for 406 translocation carriers with 3,968 embryos biopsied on day 3. Of the 773 biopsied blastocysts, reliable SNP-PGS results were obtained for 717 (92.76%). For Robertsonian translocation carriers, the rate of normal
