Özet
Importance: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is an innovative and established fertility preservation method. More than 150 live births have been reported worldwide to date with the use of this strategy. OTC is one of the options to preserve fertility in prepubertal girls and for women who have time constraints and/or contraindications for ovarian stimulation for oocyte/embryo freezing before cancer treatment. The success rate of the ovarian tissue transplantation (OTT) depends on many interrelated factors. Therefore, preoperative evaluation and preparation of the candidate patients for the procedure are of paramount importance. Objective: In this review, our aim was to provide a guide for the clinicians, which demonstrates step-by-step assessment and preparation of the patients and ovarian tissue samples for transplantation. Evidence Acquisition: We searched for published articles in the PubMed database containing key words, such as OTT, OTC, preoperative assessment, primordial follicle density, and cancer, in the English-language literature until May 2024. We did not include abstracts or conference proceedings. Results: OTT is still a developing method as an effective fertility preservation approach. It is essential to perform a thorough preoperative evaluation of the patient to improve the success rates of transplantation. Conclusions and Relevance: Preoperative evaluation and preparation of women for ovarian transplantation surgery should include safety management to prevent reimplantation of malignant cells, transplanting ovarian tissue with minimum follicle loss and the decision of the best transfer site.
