Restoration of Ovarian Function:• 3-5 months after transplantation, the
return of ovarian function was evidenced(FSH <20 IU/L, E2 >20 pg/ml), but lastedonly for 3-5 months.
• Three patients underwent secondtransplantation. The return of ovarianfunction was faster (2-4 months) aftersecond transplantation.
• Long term ovarian function lasting for 12-60 months has been established aftersecond transplantation in all 3 patients.

Pros Cons• Convenient for
repeated multipletransplantations
• Non invasiveprocedure
• Easily accessible foroccyte retrievalwithout anesthesia
• Feasible for patientswith severe pelvicadhesion
• IVF procedurerequired
• Efficacy not proven(No live birth yet)
• Suboptimal (unknown)environmental effectson follicle growth andmaturation
• Possible poor qualityoocytes

We need to develop newstrategies that can protect

Issue 6: Efficacy
• Follicle development: <50%• Egg retrieval: 3/5 (7/8)• Fertilization: 4/7 (2/20)• Embryo development: 3/4 (1/2)• Pregnancy rate: 0 (0)

Conclusions• Ovarian tissue cryobanking is a
promising strategy to preserve fertility incancer patients.
• Stored ovarian tissue can be graftedeither orthotopically or heterotopically.
• To date, there is no pregnancy withheterotopic transplantation of frozen-thawed human ovarian tissue.

Conclusions• Clinical practicability of heterotopic
transplantation is questionable at presentas the environment of heterotopic sitesmay not be as favorable for normalfollicular development.
• Nevertheless, there are many advantagesof heterotopic transplantation, especiallywhen the hostile conditions of pelviccavity preclude orthotopic transplantation.
