Abstract: While the introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has revolutionized the treatment of male infertility, concerns have been raised regarding the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in pregnancies derived from ICSI.

Thus, we hypothesized that defects in early meiotic events may contribute to both male infertility and the production of aneuploid sperm.
