Inverted microscopy-based assessment reveals major maturation gap between denuded and non-denuded GV oocytes: A novel r-IVM approach
Abstract
Objective: To compare the maturation rate and developmental potential of immature oocytes subjected to and spared from cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) denudation. Materials and Methods: This single-center prospective observational study was conducted between 15 November-15-December 2025. Germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes were allocated to two groups: Group 1 included oocytesobtained from follicles >10 mm and identified as GV following denudation, whereas group 2 included immature oocytes retrieved from non-dominant follicles with diameter
