Abstract: Fertility preservation in patients undergoing gonadotoxic treatments, particularly those with cancer, has become a major priority in reproductive health over the past two decades. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC), as a relatively novel yet rapidly expanding technique, offers distinct advantages compared to oocyte or embryo cryopreservation. These include its immediate applicability without the need for ovarian stimulation, feasibility in patients requiring urgent treatment or in prepubertal girls, and the possibility of simultaneous restoration of endocrine function following tissue transplantation. Recent reviews indicate that more than 200 live births have been reported worldwide after ovarian tissue transplantation (OTT), highlighting its genuine clinical efficacy [1,2].
