Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation in A Young Girl with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia Before Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Case Report

With the rising in the survival rates of cancer patients, ovarian tissue cryopreservation has been used increasingly for the purpose of future fertility preservation. A 22-year-old girl with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, after 6 months of chemotherapy was a candidate for ovarian tissue cryopreservation. Despite chemotherapy, AMH survey was normal. After laparoscopic ovariectomy, immature oocytes from antral follicles underwent IVM and then were frozen. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation was done too. Inthe histology survey, follicular density was acceptable. This case shows that only having a history of chemotherapy doesn’t exclude the patient from a fertility preservation program. Other clinical conditions also should be considered.
