Abstract

Recently, a new technology known as the Noninvasive Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (niPGT-A) emerged, using cell-free DNA present in the spent culture media of human blastocysts. Unlike PGT-A, in which only trophectoderm cells are used, niPGT-A reflects the ploidy state of these cells and internal cell mass, suggesting that this new technology may be less prone to error, being more reliable than the invasive test.The present study reported the first occurrence of childbirth following niPGT-A in Brazil.
