The development of ovarian tissue cryopreservation in Edinburgh: translation from a rodent model through validation in a large mammal and then into clinical practice.
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica 2019 Februrary 6
Ovarian tissue cryopreservation has developed rapidly from its origins in experiments in sheep in the 1990s, and is now becoming recognised as a standard, rather than experimental, procedure. This review summarises the origins of the technique, and key milestones in its development since the first reported sheep pregnancy in 1994 to the first successful human pregnancy in 2004, and now to the first baby born following cryopreservation of prepubertal ovarian tissue. Many challenges remain to optimise this technique, to improve the survival of follicles within the reimplanted ovarian tissue, to improve its reproducibility and thus success rate and the lifespan of graft. The other key area remains the possibility of the grafted tissue containing malignant cells, most importantly in leukaemia. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
