Early cleavage morphology affects the quality and implantation potential of day 3 embryos Haydar Nadir Çiray, M.D., Ph.D., Levent Karagenç, Ph.D., Ulun Uluǧ, M.D., Faruk Bener, M.D., Mustafa Bahçeci, M.D. Fertility and Sterility Volume 85, Issue 2, Pages 358-365 (February 2006) DOI: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2005.07.1301 Copyright © 2006 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions
FIGURE 1 Examples of early cleavage morphologies. Cleavage patterns of these embryos are uneven (A and E), even (C and D), fragmented (B and F), and nuclear morphologies are mononucleation (C), invisible (A, E, and F), and asymmetry (B and D). Embryos displaying invisible and asymmetrical nuclear morphologies are classified as nonmononucleated. Çiray. Early cleavage morphology and implantation. Fertil Steril 2006.
