Abstract
A human immunodeficiency virus-discordant couple failed to conceive through in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection of cryopreserved semen banked by the human immunodeficiency virus-positive partner. The husband subsequently had acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and died. The subsequent transfer of cryopreserved embryos resulted in pregnancy. Both mother and child are human immunodeficiency virus negative.
