Popis: Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) has been controversial in its application to improve reproductive success, reduce time-to-pregnancy, and serve the intention-to-treat. Nevertheless, many in vitro fertilization (IVF) units have already introduced the service for one reason or another. Given PGT-A is not a stand-alone technique but a clinical service involving several disciplines, this mini review discussed the factors that can influence success rates when PGT-A is applied and highlighted practical issues encountered by clinicians, embryology, and genetics laboratories involved in the provision of PGT-A service.
