Abstract

To report the first case of restoration of ovarian activity and live birth after cryopreserved ovarian tissue autograft in a patient without cancer treated by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Case report. University hospital. One woman with homozygous sickle cell anemia. An orthotopic autotransplantation of ovarian cortical strips was performed after freeze-thawing. Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue, bone marrow transplantation, ovarian autograft, and restoration of ovarian function. In autumn 2005, biopsy samples of ovarian tissue were cryopreserved before chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplantation. In spring 2008, because the patient had been menopausal for 2.5 years as a result of the conditioning therapy, an orthotopic autotransplantation of thawed ovarian cortex was performed. The patient conceived spontaneously in a natural cycle in autumn 2008, and delivered a healthy female child in June 2009. Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue with subsequent autotransplantation is an emerging procedure for preserving the fertility of young patients with a high risk of premature ovarian failure (POF) resulting from gonadotoxic treatment. This case opens up new perspectives in cases of nonmalignant diseases.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
