Fertility protection: complications of surgery and results of removal and transplantation of ovarian tissue
2017
Fertility-preserving measures are becoming important for patients receiving oncological treatment. One method involves cryopreservation of ovarian tissue and transplanting it when treatment is completed. We report complications resulting from surgical and fertility medicine, and the results of procedures for the removal and transplantation of ovarian tissue carried out within the FertiProtekt network. A survey using a structured questionnaire was conducted among the FertiProtekt network centres between November 2015 and June 2016. The analysis included surgical techniques used to remove and transplant ovarian tissue, surgical complications and results. Laparoscopic removal and transplantati…
LH administration as a potential strategy for ovarian protection and female fertility preservation against highly gonadotoxic chemotherapy

Per tant, els factors que afecten negativament la dotació de fol·licles provocaran una reducció significativa de la vida reproductiva en la dona. Les teràpies oncològiques basades en l'administració de quimioteràpia alquilant s'utilitzen habitualment per a tractar els càncers ginecològics en pacients joves, però amb freqüència acceleren l'esgotament de la reserva fol·licular i l'aparició de la menopausa.

Effects of Oral Supplementation with Myo-Inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol on Ovarian Functions in Female Long-Term Survivors of Lymphoma: Results from a…
2022
The progressive improvement of lymphoma treatment has led to an important prolongation of patient survival and life expectancy. The principal international scientific societies of oncology now therefore recommend that long-term survivors of lymphoma join fertility programs. Specifically, fertile-age patients should be assisted by a multidisciplinary team, including specialists dedicated to fertility preservation in oncology, in order to support the completion of their reproductive project. In the general population, the use of Myo-Inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol (MI/DCI) has been demonstrated to be an effective choice to treat ovarian dysfunctions, with a consequent improvement in reproductiv…
