Does endometriosis inflict harm on embryos? A systematic review of embryo morphokinetics analysed by time lapse monitoring in women with endometriosis.
Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2023 December 9
Endometriosis has been shown to be associated with unfavorable development and maturation of oocytes, as well as aberrancies in embryonal development, including arrest after fertilization, following in vitro fertilization (IVF). Time-lapse monitoring (TLM) enables continuous and non-invasive monitoring of embryo morphokinetics during the IVF process and might be useful in the assessment of embryos from women with endometriosis. In this review, five eligible studies were evaluated to determine if embryo morphokinetics assessed under TLM differ in patients with endometriosis and subsequently predict blastocyst quality, implantation and success of pregnancy. The studies showed overall inferior morphokinetic parameters of embryos from endometriosis patients when compared to controls, independent of the severity of endometriosis. Embryos with optimal early morphokinetic parameters (t2, s2, t5, tSB, tEB) and late developmental events (compaction, morulation, and blastulation) had better implantation rates than those who had suboptimal ranges. However, due to few studies available with mostly retrospective data, the validity of these findings and their generalizability for clinical practice needs to be further assessed. Prospective studies with larger sample sizes are needed to determine whether using TLM for embryo selection in endometriosis improves pregnancy and live birth outcomes.
