Attempts to 'rescue' by ICSI oocytes that remained unfertilized 24 h after conventional IVF have generally resulted in poor outcomes. The aim of the present study was to compare the outcome of rescue ICSI performed on one group of patients 6 h after initial insemination with those of another group where rescue ICSI was performed 22 h after initial insemination.
