Efficacy of intracytoplasmic sperm injection in women with non-male factor infertility: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The use of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has dramatically increased in patients with non-male factor infertility during the last decades.

Material and methods
