title: Pregnancy from cryopreserved embryos: an important new aspect of assisted reproduction.
abstract: Assisted Reproduction techniques have become well-established methods of treating infertility in the decade since their inception. The gradually improving efficacy of these procedures has made the risks of multiple pregnancy a serious concern. Cryopreservation of "extra" embryos has been developed to counter this problem, but has led to new difficulties. Assisted Reproduction in Kentucky has kept pace with progress worldwide; the first Kentucky live birth from transfer of cryopreserved embryos is reported.
