Since then, this technology has quickly become an indispensable technique in reproductive medicine, and its validity has been verified through several clinical studies over the past 10 years. After several technologic improvements, the rate of ICSI fertilization is comparable to that of conventional in vitro fertilization. In this article, we discuss how ICSI has improved fertilization and pregnancy rates.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1028455909601637intracytoplasmic sperm injection
