Evaluation of preimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangement by a commonly used next generation sequencing workflow.

This is the first report to evaluate the applicability of a commercial NGS-based workflow for preimplantation testing for reciprocal translocations/inversions. Our study demonstrated that NGS can diagnose unbalanced translocation/inversion products with the same efficiency as aCGH. The applicability of NGS, with respect to individual karyotype, can be predicted before proceeding to treatment.
