BACKGROUND: Balanced insertional translocations (BITs) can increase the risk of infertility, recurrent miscarriages or neonatal birth defects due to chromosomal imbalances in gametes. However, studies on preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) for patients carrying BITs are inadequate.
METHODS: A preimplantation genetic genotyping and haplotype analysis approach was developed and implemented in this study. Genome-wide SNP genotyping was performed, followed by core family-based haplotype analysis. The balanced insertion segments in euploid embryos were inferred from the haplotypes inherited from the carrier parent.
RESULTS: A total of 10 BIT carrier couples were enrolled in our study. 15 in vitro fertilisation cycles were conducted, resulting in 73 blastocysts biopsied and subjected to PGT analysis. Among these, 20 blastocysts displayed rearrangement-related imbalances, 13 exhibited de novo aneuploidies, 15 presented a complex anomaly involving both imbalances and additional aneuploidies, while 25 were euploid. Within the euploid embryos, 12 were balanced carrier embryos and 13 were non-carrier embryos. To date, eight non-carrier and one carrier embryos have been transferred, resulting in seven clinical pregnancies. All pregnancies were recommended to perform prenatal diagnosis, our date revealed complete concordance between fetal genetic testing results and PGT results. Presently, five infants have been born from these pregnancies, and two pregnancies are still ongoing.
CONCLUSION: The proposed method facilitates comprehensive chromosome screening and the concurrent identification of balanced insertions or normal karyotypes in embryos. This study offers an effective and universally applicable strategy for BIT carriers to achieve a healthy pregnancy and prevent the transmission of BITs to their offspring.
