11 years of frozen ovarian implantation for girls with cancer
This ovarian cyst has been refrigerated for 11 years to avoid chemotherapy cycles that may cause infertility.
The surgery to restore the motherhood of 26-year-old patients was done by "super robot" Da Vinci. The ovaries of this person have been refrigerated for 11 years to avoid chemotherapy cycles that may cause infertility.
Dr. Kutluk Oktay , from New York University Hospital - Winthrop (USA), controlled the Da Vinci surgical robot in this special operation. He hopes patients will get pregnant within 3-6 months. The anonymous female patient has recovered well after 5 days of surgery.

Dr. Oktay also invented the ovarian cryopreservation technique in 1999 - one of the largest medical breakthroughs in history.
His patient used to be a girl who had a relapse three times. The recurrence of adolescence, doctors were forced to put her into a coma for a month due to extremely bad changes.

She only had one last chance to have a bone marrow transplant . Before that, she had to undergo an intense chemotherapy that the chemicals put into her body could even cause children to go straight to menopause.
Her parents then approached Dr. Oktay, hoping that he could help his daughter retain her motherhood. He accepted. One of her ovaries was removed at age 15, separated into nearly 20 small pieces, each containing more than half a million eggs.
The old girl successfully treated cancer, currently 26 years old and married. A year and a half ago, the two sides agreed on a transplant back to the ovary. After 11 years of cold storage, the ovaries are thawed, assembled and returned to the body.
Dr. Oktay has done many successful ovarian transplants, but this is the first time he has operated on a Da Vinci robot."Everyone is worried. But I see potential, I want to try" - he shared briefly. And the coordination between the veteran surgeon and the "super robot" gave very good results.
