Natural-cycle IVF combined with in-vitro maturation (natural-cycle IVF/IVM) was used as a treatment for a 27-year-old woman. She was administered 10,000 IU of human chorionic gonadotrophin intramuscularly about 36 h prior to oocyte collection and oocyte collection was performed on day 11 of her menstrual cycle. One mature oocyte was retrieved from the leading follicle and another five mature oocytes and six immature oocytes were retrieved from the rest of the follicles. Out of 10 fertilized zygotes, eight of them cleaved. Three day-3 embryos derived from in-vivo matured oocytes (one was from the leading follicle) were transferred but failed to conceive. The remaining five embryos were continuously cultured until day 6 and four of them developed to the expanded blastocyst stage and vitrified for the storage. Six months later, two vitrified-warmed blastocysts derived from the immature oocytes were transferred and resulted in the full-term delivery of a healthy female infant. This case report for the first time indicates that blastocysts produced from the immature oocytes retrieved from the small follicles, when a leading follicle exists in the ovaries, can be vitrified to produce a healthy live birth, suggesting that natural-cycle IVF/IVM is an efficient infertility treatment.
