Abstract

Aim: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is the most commonly used assisted reproductive technology method in the treatment of infertility, especially for the severe male factor infertility. This study aimed to determine the inclusive structure of articles about ICSI, the evolution of research themes, the research tendencies and their geographical distribution.  Bibliometric science mapping was used for this purpose. Materials-Methods: Within the scope of the research, the WoS database was examined and a total number of 2379 articles, matching the search criteria, were analyzed. Studies in the data set were in terms of journals, researchers, related topics and countries. Results: It has been determined that the first article about ICSI was published in 1993, a serious increase in the number of articles was observed until 1998 and the largest number of articles were published in 2021. The most influential author in this field in terms of number of publications and citations was found as a Belgian researcher “Prof. Paul Devroey (Free University of Brussels)” and Belgian researchers were found to be in the first place. “Human Reproduction” is the most influential journal in this field in terms of citations and indexing. “IVF”, “Pregnancy” and “Infertility”, are the most commonly used words along with ICSI. The study named “High fertilization and implantation rates after intracytoplasmic sperm injection” is the most cited study. The USA ranked first in the number of single-country, multi-country and total publications. China, Belgium, Turkey and Italy are also among the leading countries. When the publications are examined in terms of cooperation between countries, it is seen that the joint publications are most commonly conducted between Italian-Spain and Dutch-Belgian academics. Conclusion: It is considered that the results of this study will raise awareness about ICSI and shed light on researchers.
