A single sperm cell is injected directly into the cytoplasm of an egg during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) process known as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The gametes are prepared using this method in order to obtain embryos that may be transplanted to a mother uterus. This approach avoids the acrosome reaction.

ICSI is a type of in vitro fertilization where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg. This treatment increases the chances of fertilization and is commonly used for couples with infertility issues. In France, ICSI is performed at IVF centers across the country.
This high-tech fertility procedure is usually covered by French health insurance up to a certain amount. Waiting time can vary from 1 to 3 months.
