"A medical lab in the Netherlands may have inadvertently fertilized 26 women’s eggs with the wrong sperm, in a bizarre mix-up revealed after half of the women had already either become pregnant or given birth.
The BBC reports that the University Medical Center in Utrecht admitted to a “procedural error” during in-vitro fertilizations between April 2015 and November 2016, and that an investigation has been launched.
“During fertilization, sperm cells from one treatment couple may have ended up with the egg cells of 26 other couples,” the center said in a statement cited by the BBC.
“Therefore there’s a chance that the egg cells have been fertilized by sperm other than that of the intended father,” it continued, adding that there was only a small chance that the wrong sperm actually did come into contact with the eggs in question."*
