The largest PGD series (4748 cases) performed by the three most active PGD centers is reported, evidencing the birth of the first 1000 apparently healthy babies after PGD. The data suggest the safety, accuracy and reliability of the procedure and its impact on assisted reproduction and genetic practices.
