title: Immunotherapy with paternal lymphocytes preceding in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer for patients with repeated failure of embryo transfer.

In one patient showing close histocompatibility with the husband, the subsequent new IVF-ET was successful under positive MLR-blocking antibody induced by immunotherapy.
