Plain-language summary

laser-assisted ICSI (LA-ICSI) was described to be a new method combining a less invasive ICSI technique with assisted hatching.This procedure is usually used for MII oocytes possessing oolemma breakage difficulties, but why not using it for even normal Oocytes?!. Especially because data indicated that in addition to an improved oocyte survival, this new approach increases the hatching rate in vitro. But since it is still debatable that such a small opening might impair the hatching process, so modified zona thinning technique was proposed for more embryo safety.
