ABSTRACT

During the year 1997, the French Federation of CECOS recorded the results of the 23 CECOS centers and IFRAERES in Toulouse. 1620 first demands of procreation with sperm donors were registed (versus 1,690 in 1996) but only 3,235 patients received at least one donation in the year, 22% less than 1996. From 10,935 cycles (AID or IVFD), 1,333 pregnancies were obtained, scoring the identical amount in terms of pregnancies as in 1996 but with less 30% in terms of cycles. The analysis of the 1,298 deliveries of the 1996 pregnancies show a malformation rate of 1.9%. 419 male volunteers came forward as sperm donors (5% more than 1996). In gamete autocryopreservation, the number of semen preservation is globally increasing (11.2% more than 1996), mainly because the capacity of a better reutilization with ICSI.
