ABSTRACT: Objective
To evaluate the clinical outcomes in the carriers of insertional translocation (IT).Design
Retrospective case series.Setting
University-affiliated reproductive medical center.Patients
Twenty-three couples with ITs.Intervention
No direct interventions were involved; however, this study included patients who underwent preimplantation genetic testing for structural chromosomal rearrangements (PGT-SR).Main outcome measure
Outcome of preimplantation genetic testing for structural chromosomal rearrangements and percentage of blastocysts available for transfer.Results
Among 23 IT carriers, 15 were simple interchromosome ITs (type A), 3 were intrachromosome IT carriers (type B), and 5 were interchromosome IT carriers combined with other translocations (type C). A total of 190 blastocysts from 30 cycles were biopsied, 187 embryos were tested successfully, and only 57 blastocysts (30.5%) from 21 patients were available for transfer (normal or balanced). The unbalanced rearrangement rate of type C was 79.2% (42/53), and the proportion of type A was 50.0% (57/114), which was significantly higher than that of type B (5%, 1/20). In type A, the probability of embryos harboring unbalanced rearrangement in female carriers was 56.0% (51/91), which was higher than that in male carriers (26.1%, 6/23). Furthermore, the haploid autosomal length value of the inserted fragment was correlated linearly with the incidence of abnormal embryos. In type A gametes, most gametes produced by 2:2 separation without crossover, and no 3:1 separation gamete was observed.Conclusions
The chance of identifying normal or balanced and mosaic blastocysts per mature oocytes in patients with ITs are 16.6% (67/404). Greater IT complexity results in fewer transferable embryos. For simple interchromosome ITs, female carriers and those with higher haploid autosomal length values have a higher risk of producing embryos with unbalanced rearrangement.
