ZIFT: Zygote intrafallopian transfer (zift) is a surgical, laparoscopic, procedure where a zygote is placed in the female's fallopian tube. The zygote continues to grow and migrates to the uterine cavity where it implants.

Embryo into tube: Zygote intrafallopian transfer (zift) is placement of an embryo into the fallopian tube, usually under laparoscopic guidance. Zift is now rare, since fertility specialists tend to avoid the risks associated with surgery, and lab culture techniques have improved so that embryos can be grown to advanced stages in the ivf lab.
