Figure 1 Fertilization and cleavage of oocytes showing one (A and B) or multiple (C) large vacuoles and extremely thin zona pellucida. Oocytes 1 and 2 had normal (2PN) fertilization (D and E) while oocyte 3 resulted in 1PN fertilization (F). Embryos with two (G and H) or four (I) blastomeres were transferred and resulted in singleton pregnancies. mv=multiple vacuoles; v=vacuole; 1PN=one pronucleus; 2PN=two pronuclei.
