Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Are in vitro maturation (IVM) rates of cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs), retrieved from breast cancer patients seeking urgent fertility preservation (FP) before neoadjuvant chemotherapy, different between those recovered in the follicular or in the luteal phase of the cycle? SUMMARY ANSWER The present investigation reveals no major difference in the number of COCs recovered or their IVM rates whatever the phase of the cycle at which egg retrieval is performed, suggesting that IVM is a promising tool for breast cancer patients seeking urgent oocyte cryopreservation. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY FP now represents a standard of care for young cancer patients having to undergo gonadotoxic treatment. Mature oocyte cryopreservation after IVM of COCs has been proposed for urgent FP, especially in women, who have no time to undergo ovarian stimulation, or when it is contraindicated. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION From January 2011 to December 2014, we prospectively studied 248 breast cancer patients awaiting neoadjuvant chemotherapy, aged 18-40 years, candidates for oocyte vitrification following IVM, either at the follicular or the luteal phase of the cycle. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Serum anti-Müllerian hormone and progesterone levels and antral follicle count (AFC) were measured prior to oocyte retrieval. Patients were sorted into two groups according to the phase of the cycle during which eggs were harvested (Follicular phase group, n = 127 and Luteal phase group, n = 121). Number of COCs recovered, maturation rates after 48 h of culture and total number of oocytes cryopreserved were assessed. Moreover, the oocyte retrieval rate (ORR) was calculated by the number of COCs recovered ×100/AFC. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE In the Follicular and the Luteal phase groups, women were comparable in terms of age, BMI and markers of follicular ovarian status. There was no significant difference in the number of COCs recovered (mean ± SEM), 9.3 ± 0.7 versus 11.1 ± 0.8, and ORR (median (range)) 43.1 (1-100) versus 47.8 (7.7-100)%. Moreover, maturation rates after 48 h of culture (median (range)) were comparable in the follicular and luteal phase groups, 66.7 (20-100) versus 64.5 (0-100)%. Finally, the total number of oocytes cryopreserved (mean ± SEM) was similar in both groups (6.2 ± 0.4 versus 6.8 ± 0.5). LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION Despite the intact meiotic competence of immature oocytes recovered during the follicular or the luteal phase, there is a dramatic lack of data regarding the outcome of IVM oocytes cryopreserved in cancer patients. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS IVM of oocytes may be an interesting method of FP in urgent situations. Improving the culture conditions will be needed to increase the maturation rates and the overall potential of in vitro matured oocytes. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTERESTS None. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER N/A.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Clarifying whether the addition of recombinant LH (rLH) to recombinant FSH (rFSH) leads to progesterone (P4) levels on dhCG comparable to those obtained with stimulation with FSH and hCG (HP-hMG) MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pituitary-desensitized patients, matched for age and follicle reserve, received rFSH+LH (n=729) or HP-hMG (n=729). In the rFSH+rLH group, rLH (75 UI/day) was started at day 6. To control for the influence of ovarian response on P4, we divided serum P4 levels by the number of growing follicles (13-22 mm; "per follicle" P4 levels) and performed a multivariate analysis. RESULTS Serum P4 levels on dHCG were lower in the HP-hMG (median: 0.63 ng/mL, max-min: 0.10-2.97) than in the rFSH+rLH group (0.91 ng/mL; 0.10-4.65, P<0.0001), as well as "per-follicle" P4 levels (0.055 ng/mL/growing follicle, 0.006-0.284 vs 0.077 ng/mL/growing follicle, 0.003-0.336; P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS HP-hMG led to lower P4 levels on day hCG than rFSH+rLH irrespective of the intensity of the ovarian response and the adjunction of rLH (75 IU/day from day 6 onward).

Abstract
The recent emergence of oncofertility raises the question of ovarian stimulation and its risks when performed for oocyte or/and embryo cryopreservation in a fertility preservation program. The relation between ovarian stimulation and cancer has been marked by the possible direct or indirect tumorigenic role for pituitary gonadotrophins in the tumorogenesis. Although the growth of many gonadal and extragonadal tumors is stimulated by gonadal sex hormones, whose production is regulated by gonadotrophins, there is still a lack of data to consider FSH and LH as tumor promoters. The purpose of this brief review is to present on one hand, the questions raised by the administration of exogenous gonadotrophins in cancer patients and on the other, to evaluate both experimental and clinical data about the possible relation between gonadotrophins and tumorogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Looking for a qualitative marker of ovarian function, we aimed to verify whether responsiveness of antral follicles to FSH administration, as reflected by the Follicular Output RaTe (FORT), is related to their reproductive competence. METHODS We studied 322 IVF-ET candidates aged 25-43 years who underwent controlled ovarian hyperstimulation with similar initial FSH doses. Antral follicle (3-8 mm) count (AFC) and pre-ovulatory follicle (16-22 mm) count (PFC) were performed, respectively, at the achievement of pituitary suppression (before FSH treatment) and on the day of hCG administration. The FORT was calculated by PFC × 100/AFC. FORT groups were set according to tercile values: low (<42%; n= 102), average (42-58%; n= 123) and high (>58%; n= 97). RESULTS The average FORT was 50.6% (range, 16.7-100.0%). Clinical pregnancy rates per oocyte retrieval increased progressively from the low to the high FORT groups (33.3, 51.2 and 55.7%, respectively, P< 0.003) and such a relationship assessed by logistic regression was independent of the confounding covariates, women's ages, AFC and PFC. CONCLUSIONS The observed relationship between IVF-ET outcome and the percentage of antral follicles that effectively respond to FSH administration reaching pre-ovulatory maturation suggests that FORT may be a qualitative reflector of ovarian follicular competence. Further studies with broader inclusion criteria and more personalized protocols are needed to validate these results.

Abstract
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is authorized in France since 1999. After 10 years, technical results are encouraging. With the development of new technologies, our team is able to diagnosis the large majority of chromosome translocations and 75 monogenic diseases. However, PGD remains limited because of the growing augmentation of demands causing an increasing delay for the first procedure of more than 18 months. Since 2006, 19 couples asked for a PGD with HLA typing. In January 2011, 11 couples have already been included in our PGD program. The birth of the first child after PGD with HLA typing offers new perspectives of treatment for these couples.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This retrospective study aimed at analyzing IVF-ET management and outcome after cancellation of a first cycle for poor response. PATIENTS AND METHOD One hundred and forty-two infertile patients were included in this observational study. After an overall analysis on the outcome of the second IVF-ET attempt, a sub-analysis was performed according to the presence or the absence of poor prognostic criteria defined as mentioned: patient age superior to 38 years old, antral follicle count (3-9 mm in diameter) inferior to 10 on cycle day 3 and day 3 serum AMH and FSH levels less than 1 ng/mL and more than 10 IU/mL, respectively. Main outcome measures were the cancellation rates, pregnancy and live birth rates. RESULTS When a controlled ovarian stimulation was performed, patients with poor prognosis had higher cancellation rates (37.8% vs. 13.3%, P<0.004) and lower pregnancy and live birth rates (22.2% vs. 35.0%, P<0.05 and 11.1% vs. 26.1%, P<0.05, respectively) as compared to good prognosis women. CONCLUSION The relatively high cancellation rate in patients with poor prognosis raises the question of the use of IVF modified natural cycle in this group.

Abstract
Over the past two decades, major advances in diagnostic modalities and treatment have markedly improved rates of cure for adult cancers. As a consequence, the number of long-term survivors is increasing, and fertility preservation has become a major issue for young patient about to start treatment for cancer. Whether fertility preservation is a promising option, most of the technologies currently used are far from being well established or are even still experimental. Patients should be aware that no method guarantees success. Psychological and ethical impacts of fertility preservation are major concerns and should be included in the multidisciplinary approach of the patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Analyzing the results and validating the procedure of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) performed on the day of oocyte retrieval in non obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty TESE were performed on the day of oocyte retrieval (dOR), in 52 NOA men. Patients were sorted into three groups according to the results of the surgical procedure: 1: sperm recovery with possible sperm freezing (n=20); 2: sperm recovery without freezing (n=27); 3: "negative" biopsy (n=13). ICSI outcomes in the two groups with sperm recovery were compared to those of ICSI performed with frozen-thawed sperm obtained from TESE performed (n=13). RESULTS The rate of positive sperm retrieval was 78%. While the overall clinical pregnancy rate was 50%, no difference in the fertilization, implantation and clinical pregnancy rates was found in the two groups with positive sperm retrieval as compared to frozen-thawed sperm group. Twelve pregnancies were obtained in patients without further sperm cryopreservation. CONCLUSION After TESE in NOA men, cryopreserved sperm produced comparable results with freshly obtained sperm. However, TESE performed on dOR can offer the opportunity, in patients with rare sperm that might not survive freeze-thaw, to have a possible fresh embryo transfer. Couples should be counselled regarding the possibility of oocyte retrieval without sperm for ICSI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since in rodents anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) has been shown to inhibit antral follicle responsiveness to FSH, we aimed at verifying whether a relationship exists between serum AMH levels and antral follicle responsiveness to exogenous FSH in normo-cycling women. METHODS Serum AMH, estradiol (E(2)) and FSH levels were prospectively measured on cycle day 3 in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) with a time-release GnRH agonist and standardized FSH doses. In 162 patients, follicles were counted after pituitary suppression and before FSH administration (baseline; small antral follicles; 3-8 mm), and on the day of hCG (dhCG; pre-ovulatory follicles; 16-22 mm). Antral follicle responsiveness to FSH was estimated by the Follicular Output RaTe (FORT), determined by the ratio pre-ovulatory follicle count on dhCG × 100/small antral follicle count at baseline. RESULTS Serum AMH levels were positively correlated with the number of small antral follicles at baseline (r = 0.59; P < 0.0001) and pre-ovulatory follicles on dhCG (r = 0.17; P < 0.04). Overall, FORT was 47.5 ± 1.4% and failed to be influenced by the woman's age, BMI or basal E(2) and FSH level. Conversely, multiple regression analysis showed that FORT was negatively correlated with AMH levels (r = -0.30; P < 0.001), irrespective of duration of COH and total FSH dose. CONCLUSIONS The percentage of follicles that effectively respond to FSH by reaching pre-ovulatory maturation is negatively and independently related to serum AMH levels. Although the mechanisms underlying this finding remain unclear, it is in keeping with the hypothesis that AMH inhibits follicle sensitivity to FSH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate quality control impact, in assisted reproductive medecine, in view of the stability of results. MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospective collection of all IVF cycles at the center of AMP at Antoine-Béclère hospital (Clamart), as well as pregnancy outcomes, from 2002 till 2006. RESULTS 44.3% in the clinical pregnancy rate and 38.0% in the delivery rate per oocyte retrieval. These rates are stable during the five years studied. The rate of multiple pregnancy is of 30.7%, decreasing, with the decrease in number of transferred embryos. CONCLUSION Results are stable over five years duration. Quality control seems to be necessary.

[The role of ultrasound examination to evaluate ovarian reserve of infertile patients]. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2009; 37:425-31.

Abstract
The accurate assessment of ovarian reserve is an essential step before the treatment of infertile couples. Ovarian reserve could either be evaluated through clinical or biological parameters, but ultrasound plays a remarkable role, since it permits the direct visualization and count of ovarian antral follicles. Nevertheless, the available literature data are conflicting about the real sensibility and specificity of this method to predict the exact number of retrieved oocytes or the occurrence of pregnancy after a procedure for medical assisted reproduction. New technologies have been developed, as the 3D-ultrasound, who does not ameliorate ultrasound accuracy, but permits the reduction of the time necessary for patient's examination and virtually eliminates inter- and intra-observer bias. The place of the ovarian artery flow evaluation by Doppler remains unclear and need more studies.

Abstract
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is one of the most common hereditary renal cystic diseases, and is caused by mutations in the PKHD1 gene. Due to the poor prognosis, there is a strong demand for prenatal diagnosis. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) represents an alternative because it avoids the physical and emotional trauma of a pregnancy termination in the case of an affected fetus. A standardized single-cell diagnostic procedure was developed, based on haplotype analysis, enabling PGD to be offered to couples at risk of transmitting ARPKD. Six linked markers within (D6S1714 and D6S243), or in close proximity to (D6S272, D6S436, KIAA0057, D6S1662) the PKHD1 gene were tested by multiplex nested-polymerase chain reaction (PCR), using a Qiagen multiplex PCR kit. PCR analyses were carried out on 50 single lymphocytes. The amplification rate was excellent (100%), with an allele drop-out (ADO) rate ranging from 0 to 8%. Five PGD cycles were performed and 23 embryos were biopsied and analysed using this test. Transferable embryos were obtained in 4 cycles, resulting in two pregnancies and the birth of a healthy boy. This standardized diagnostic procedure allowed the detection of recombination, contamination, and ADO events, providing high assay accuracy with wide applicability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This article deals with the place of adoption for couples involved in a medical help for procreation. The question is: do these couples wait for their gynaecologist's advice before beginning a procedure of adoption or do they launch such a procedure before? PATIENTS AND METHODS We have questioned 90 couples, on the first day of their treatment in our unity, about the place of adoption in their desire for a child. Are they in favour or against adoption? Have they already begun or not to think, to read, to make a decision about adoption? RESULTS In this research, 49% of theses couples are not in favour of adoption, especially when they have already had children through medical help. 84.5% thought about adoption as soon as they received the announcement of the infertility. 69% have shown their interest in adoption by reading books, watching TV or by speaking with adoptive parents or adopted children. 29% have begun a procedure of adoption but only 18% really intend to adopt a child. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Most of the infertile couples do not wait for their clinician's advice to be interested in adoption. But they probably have to hear from their clinician that the treatments are definitively finished to become completely involved in the adoption process. Some of them will prefer to stay even so without children or to think about the gamete's donation.
