12. Comparison of Retrieved Ovarian Tissue and Oocytes from Pre-pubertal and Post-pubertal Patients Undergoing Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation

Loss of fertility from gonadotoxic treatments is a long-term affect in a growing cohort of patients. While post-pubertal patients have the option of oocyte/embryo cryopreservation, pre-pubertal patients only option is ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC). While several studies have established the feasibility of pre-pubertal OTC, we seek to examine any differences in tissue or oocytes collection between pre and post-pubertal patients.
