A Report on Testicular Tissue Cryopreservation for Fertility Preservation in Children: Confirmation of Germ Cell Preservation and Few Surgical Complications

Abstract

Testicular tissue cryopreservation (TTC) is an experimental method for fertility preservation in pediatric patients facing a fertility threatening treatment regimen or diagnosis. TTC requires a surgical procedure for the removal of testicular tissue, advanced tissue processing capabilities, and long-term tissue storage at a cryopreservation facility. The goal of this work is to evaluate the surgical and pathologic outcomes of patients enrolled in an ongoing clinical protocol for fertility preservation in children.
