Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a modification of IVF. ICSI is a procedure in which one immobilized sperm is sucked into a very narrow pipette and then injected inside the egg, allowing fertilization to take place. It is usually employed when sperms are unable to enter eggs by their own power. Most forms of male infertility can be solved by use of ICSI and sperm donation is less necessary. ICSI can also be used to maximize the yield of embryos.

ICSI is known as Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection. It is a procedure when a single live sperm is trapped in a glass needle and injected straight into the egg. You need to do IVF in order to do ICSI.
