Abstract
Micromanipulation technology entered the forum of human conceptionin vitroin the late 1980s. It was erroneously perceived as a new technology – a purely mechanical approach to bypass failures of conceptionin vitro, the aetiology of which were unknown. In fact, it is the modification of technology developed since the beginning of this century, and its logical utilization for conceptionin vitro, preconception (polar body) biopsy and preimplantation (blastomere and trophectoderm) biopsy in the realm of human infertility and genetic disorders.
