Background: The estimation of oocyte quality in human in vitro fertilization (IVF) is an important point for the embryologists. Oocyte selection and the identification of the best oocytes may help to limit an overproduction of embryos and to improve the results of oocyte cryopreservation programs. The follicular fluid (FF) can be provided easily during oocyte pickup and known to represents an optimal source for non-invasive biochemical predictors of oocyte quality. However, till now no substance was found to be used as reliable markers of oocyte competence to fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy. Metabolism and ATP levels within the oocyte and adjacent cumulus cells are associated with quality of oocyte and optimal development of a healthy embryo. Lipid metabolism provides a potent source of energy and its importance during oocyte maturation is being increasingly recognised. Objectives: To determine the effect of lipids (Cholesterol. Triglyceride and HDL) level in serum and follicular fluid in predicting oocyte quality, embryo quality and outcome in patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection program Patients and Methods: Fifty eight (58) infertile women with an age range 21-41 years old undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles were included in this study. Lipids (Cholesterol. TG and HDL.,) levels in serum and follicular fluid were measured by auto analyzer for biochemistry (Flexor El_200) and correlation with oocyte quality, embryo quality and ICSI outcome was done. Results: The results of this study showed no significant (p<0.05) difference in lipid levels in serum and follicular fluid between pregnant and non pregnant females as well as non significant correlation was found between lipid level in serum and follicular fluid in relation to oocyte quality and embryo quality. Conclusions: Serum and follicular fluid lipids are not good predictors of oocyte quality, embryo quality or ICSI outcome in women undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles. Accordingly, these biomarkers would be less reflective of the follicular environment and that the effect of maternal metabolic disorders on oocyte quality and fertility outcome is complex and of a multifactorial kind.
