Laparoscopic ovarian tissue harvesting for cryopreservation from a child with galactosemia.

Objective: To describe an approach to fertility preservation by a multidisciplinary team of reproductive endocrinology and infertility, pediatric gynecology and surgery, and genetics experts via ovarian tissue harvesting and cryopreservation for a toddler with galactosemia. Galactosemia is associated with progressive primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early intervention with ovarian tissue cryopreservation may help preserve fertility.

Design: Video description of a tissue harvesting and cryopreservation technique.
