Are There Any Risks Associated with ICSI for Cancer Patients?
While ICSI is a widely used and generally safe procedure, there are some risks associated with its use. These include potential damage to the eggs during injection and a slightly increased risk of genetic abnormalities in the resulting embryos. For cancer patients, the primary concern is ensuring that the fertility preservation methods do not interfere with or delay their cancer treatment. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach involving oncologists, reproductive specialists, and other healthcare providers is essential to minimize risks and optimize outcomes.
