Abstract
Mastenbroek et al. (July 5 issue)1 report a detrimental effect of preimplantation genetic screening, performed in women of advanced maternal age, on rates of ongoing pregnancy and live birth. We believe this outcome is explained by problems with the authors' methods, both for biopsy and for diagnosis.Keywords
