Popis: Abstract Background With the wide application of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) with trophectoderm (TE) biopsy, the safety of PGT has always been a concern. Since TE subsequently forms the placenta, it is speculated that the removal of these cells was associated with adverse obstetrical or neonatal outcomes after single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer (FBT). Previous studies report contradictory findings with respect to TE biopsy and obstetric and neonatal outcomes. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study including 720 patients with singleton pregnancies from single FBT cycles who delivered at the same university-affiliated hospital between January 2019 and March 2022. The cohorts were divided into two groups: the PGT group (blastocysts with TE biopsy, n = 223) and the control group (blastocysts without biopsy, n = 497). The PGT group was matched with the control group by propensity score matching (PSM) analysis at a ratio of 1:2. The enrolled sample sizes in the two groups were 215 and 385, respectively. Results Patient demographic characteristics were comparable between the groups after PSM except for the proportion of recurrent pregnancy loss, which was significantly higher in the PGT cohort (31.2 vs. 4.2%, P
