Source abstract
The high survival rate of pediatric cancer patients has prompted a growing research focus on the long-term sequelae of cancer treatment. Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and infertility, which are the consequences of the gonadotoxic effects of anticancer therapy, have a profound impact on the quality of life of the affected individuals. A rapidly evolving field of oncofertility has emerged in an attempt to establish a structured approach to fertility preservation in oncologic patients. This study presents the practical aspects of fertility preservation strategies, in accordance with the latest guidelines for young female patients undergoing cancer treatment during childhood and adolescence, as well as the experience of the Gdansk Center in harvesting ovarian tissue for cryopreservation.
