Monash IVF has transferred the wrong embryo into a Melbourne woman, the second such incident admitted by the fertility giant in two months.
In a statement to the ASX on Tuesday, Monash IVF revealed it had mistakenly transferred a patient’s own embryo to her during a process in which she was supposed to receive an embryo from her partner as they sought to extend their family.
The Melbourne bungle comes just two months after Monash IVF was forced to admit an embryo mix-up at its Brisbane clinic resulted in a Queensland woman giving birth to a stranger’s baby.

This headline is so deceptive, as is the article itself. The headline should make clear the ‘in two months’ qualification as anyone who knows anything of the history of Monash Medical (sic) Centre knows, there have been numerous admitted ‘errors’ over the time of its and the programme’s existence. The article should make this clear, too – and one can rest assured that those ‘errors’ admitted are not the only ones.
