摘要
Embryos that underwent assisted hatching before freezing had a statistically significant higher survival rate and blastocyst formation rate compared with controls. Therefore, breaching the integrity of the zona pellucida and directly exposing the embryos to cryoprotectants not only does not result in damaging the embryos but might also afford them an advantage as they go through the freeze-thaw cycle.
