title: [Ovarian tissue cryopreservation--an opportunity to preserve fertility in women with cancer].
abstract: Chemoterapy is one of the basic modalities of oncological therapy and usually leads to permanent consequences. Infertility is one of the most common consequences resulting from irreversible gonadal damage. The potentially effective method of reproductive function protection in women undergoing chemotherapy is ovarian tissue cryopreservation. This paper summarizes the medical and scientific knowledge in this interesting multidisciplinary medical field an also presents authors own experience with this novel and interesting method of ovarian tissue protection.
