The authors review the publications devoted to the problem of health quality in the children born through assisted reproductive technologies. The data on the state of somatic and psychic health of such children are discussed. The main lines of investigations into the possible consequences of extracorporeal fertilization and its modifications are proposed. Special attention is given to the problem of comparability of different studies, the relevance and reliability of conclusions based on their results.
