Reproductive Performance Following Ovarian Transplantation
Conditions
Keywords
fertility preservation, ovarian tissue transplantation, ovarian endocrine function, assisted reproductive technology, pregnancy and live birth
Brief summary
Design: prospective cohort study. Setting: Tertiary university-affiliated ART and oncology centers. Patients: 20 cancer survivors who underwent ovarian transplantation of frozen-thawed ovarian tissue, with the aim to conceive. Interventions: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTCP) and transplantation, endocrine monitoring, IVF.
Detailed description
Main Outcomes expected: Endocrine profile IVF results, pregnancy rates following transplantation of ovarian tissue live-births rates following transplantation of ovarian tissue cancer disease recurrence
Interventions
operation(mini laparotomy) for transplantation of frozen- thawed ovarian tissue
