Ovarian tissue transplantation: 10 years of experience at the Bologna University.
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne)
March 2024
Article Synopsis
- Ovarian tissue transplantation (OTT) is highly effective, with a 95% success rate in restoring ovarian function and over 200 live births reported globally, but lacks comprehensive data due to the absence of international registries.* -
- This study analyzed 30 women who underwent OTT at one center from December 2012 to June 2023, focusing on the recovery of ovarian function and fertility after the procedure, using hormonal tests and imaging methods for monitoring.* -
- Results showed that nearly all women with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) experienced recovery of hormonal function post-OTT, with the best outcomes among those receiving heterotopic transplantation, indicating OTT's potential to address fertility issues effectively.*
Article Synopsis
- Endometriosis is a chronic condition affecting 6-10% of women, characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, which can lead to various physical symptoms and decreased quality of life.
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of pelvic floor physiotherapy (PFP) on improving urinary, bowel, and sexual functions in women with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) over a four-month period.
- Results involved comparing outcomes between a control group (no intervention) and an experimental group (PFP treatment) using validated questionnaires to track changes in symptoms and functions.
Article Synopsis
- * A study compared the prevalence of certain molecular signatures associated with cancer prognosis in patients with and without adenomyosis.
- * No significant differences were found in molecular signatures between the two groups, suggesting that adenomyosis may not influence prognosis through molecular factors, warranting further research.
Purpose: to compare the effects of Dienogest 2 mg (D) alone or combined with estrogens (D + ethinylestradiol 0.03 mg, D + EE; D + estradiol valerate 1-3 mg, D + EV) in terms of symptoms and endometriotic lesions variations.
Methods: This retrospective study included symptomatic patients in reproductive age with ultrasound diagnosis of ovarian endometriomas.
Introduction: Treatment of patients with COVID-19 has been a priority by competing with the treatment of any other disease due to limited hospital resources. The current pandemic situation has focused the attention of healthcare providers around the world away from all other non-emergency health problems, including oncofertility. The aim of the study was to evaluate the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on the activity levels of ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) in the our center.
