Genetic testing (PGD/PGT)

A healthy baby using genetic testing (PGD/PGT)

  • Lebanon
  • She was 30, her husband 32
  • IVF with preimplantation genetic testing (PGD/PGT)

A previous pregnancy had been affected by a known hereditary genetic condition, with a significant risk of recurrence.

IVF created embryos that were then tested for the specific familial mutation, and an unaffected embryo was selected for transfer.

The pregnancy succeeded, and a healthy baby boy was born — free of the tested familial condition. They named him Karim.
