By studying 138 patients undergoing PGD for aneuploidy due to advanced reproductive age (matched to 138 controls), subgroups of infertile couples were identified that benefit from PGD for aneuploidies, demonstrating the improved implantation rate in patients with eight or more two-pronuclei embryos available for analysis.
