This concise work on embryo transfer is yet another contribution
to the persevering effort to disseminate latest information on
the science and skill of performing a traumatic and successful
embryo transfer. It is the most critical culmination of the
assisted reproductive technology (ART) stimulation cycle, and a
rate-limiting step in dictating the success of treatment. The
well-worded chapters draw the reader’s attention to significant
aspects before initiating the actual embryo transfer, such as
possible causes of failure at the embryo transfer stage, uterine
evaluation, mock embryo transfer (ET), experience of the
physician, and the use of ultrasound-guidance to monitor ET. The
protocol for difficult transfers, variables that affect the
success of ET, and the influence of the catheter used for ET have
also been dealt with. The unique feature of this book is its
pragmatic approach that can translate into solutions to the
numerous frustrating ART failures that more often than not, may
be attributed to an inefficient ET procedure. It helps the reader
understand the integrity of embryo transfer, unravel its obvious
simplicity and bridge the success between the several steps of
ART. By highlighting the impeding problems associated with ET
procedure and providing valid, scientific solutions, this
stimulating edition will help the readers improve the ART success
rates in their clinical practice.
