  • Timing of breast cancer treatments with oocyte retrieval and embryo cryopreservation.

    Baynosa J, Westphal LM, Madrigrano A, Wapnir I. J Am Coll Surg. 2009; 209 (5): 603-7

    Protecting future childbearing motivates young women with breast cancer to seek oocyte or embryo cryopreservation. Concerns about delays in cancer treatment may influence patients and practitioners considering these procedures. In this study, we compared timing of chemotherapy in women who underwent ovarian stimulation/oocyte retrieval (OR) and embryo cryopreservation with those who did not.
