Résumé : This contribution summarize ten years of in vitro fertilization of clinical work. Activity growth, improvements of results (mean fertilization rate increased from 45% to 58%, fertilization failure dropped from 18% to 7%, pregnancy chances gains 9% to reach 44% per trial) and new treatments possibilities (severe male infertility) thanks to the ICSI technic were the major characteristics of this last ten years. The original anonymous oocyte donation program with donors permutation initiated as soon as 1990 has imposed itself due to it's exceptional efficiency with a pregnancy rate of 95% per oocyte pick up on a population of 46 donors and 145 recipient cycles. Thanks to the large population studied (4028 cycles, 1071 pregnancies), the tendencies in human fecundity (impact of age) and the risks linked to multiples pregnancies could be highlighted, stressing the importance of future developments presented in the other contributions following this general presentation of results.
