Interventions

  • Laparoscopic surgery — PROCEDURE
    Surgery used to remove the child's ovary tissue is called laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery employs a telescope-like instrument called laparoscope. The laparoscope will be put into the child's belly through a small (about half an inch) cut just below the belly button. Two or three other cuts may be made to allow for other instruments to help remove one of the ovaries. The surgeon will then look at both ovaries before the removal of one. Both of the child's ovaries must appear normal and be free of any masses in order to complete the surgery. The surgeon will choose which ovary will be removed at the time of surgery. This type of surgery is likely to last for 30 to 65 minutes.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to safely remove ovarian tissue in pediatric patients, who are at risk for infertility from their medical treatment, for freezing for future restoration of fertility and hormone function.

Arms

  • Arm: Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation
    Children faced with a fertility threatening diagnosis will be offered ovarian tissue cryopreservation. Pre-surgery assessment will be done while the child is in the hospital or in the pediatric oncology, surgery, or anesthesia clinic as an outpatient. The surgical procedure used to remove the child's ovary is called laparoscopy. It is not required for the treatment of the child's cancer or other medical condition. Laparoscopic surgery is done under general anesthesia (the child will be asleep during the surgery) in the operating room.

Primary Outcome Measure
