Abstract
It is estimated that, in 2010, one in every 250 adults will be a childhood cancer survivor. This review discusses the impact of current cancer treatment on fertility potential and the assisted-reproduction innovations available today for the most common cancers in young women. As the emerging discipline of fertility preservation is steadily attracting increasing interest, developments in the near future promise to be very exciting. However, in everyday routine work, better interdisciplinary cooperation between gynecological and pediatric oncologists, surgeons, immunologists and endocrinologists is necessary so that individualized options for fertility preservation can be offered in advance of surgical procedures or cancer treatments.
