Successful ovarian tissue cryopreservation with transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery: A case report.

ABSTRACT: Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can cause gonadal dysfunction in women of reproductive age. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is performed to restore fertility by allowing transplantation of the patient's frozen-thawed ovarian tissue or through future in vitro maturation and in vitro fertilization of frozen-thawed oocytes.
