Significance and Influence of Suturing for Ovarian Tissue Transplantation.
Reproductive Sciences 2023 September 7
The purpose of this animal study was to verify the effect of suturing on graft function in ovarian tissue transplantation. Ovaries from 2-week-old rats were transplanted orthotopically into the ovaries of 8-week-old female Wistar rats. The various transplantation methods used were insertion into the ovarian bursa without suturing (group A: control), suturing with a single 6-0 Vicryl stitch (group B: 6-0*1), suturing with a single 10-0 Vicryl stitch (group C: 10-0*1), and suturing with three 10-0 Vicryl stitches (group D: 10-0*3). Two weeks after transplantation, the transplanted ovaries were evaluated histologically and for gene expression. Engraftment rates of the donor ovaries 14 days after transplantation were 62.5%, 100%, 91.7%, and 100% in groups A, B, C, and D, respectively, significantly lower in group A than in the other groups. In terms of gene expression, TNFα levels were significantly higher in group D, and GDF9 and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) levels were significantly lower in group D than in groups A and B. The number of primordial follicles evaluated by HE staining was significantly lower in groups B, C, and D than in group A. Compared to orthotopic transplantation without sutures, direct suturing to the host improved the engraftment rate, although increasing the number of sutures increased inflammatory marker levels and decreased the number of primordial follicles. We believe that it is important to perform ovarian tissue transplantation using optimal suture diameter for good adhesion, but with a minimum number of sutures to preserve ovarian function.
