“…Through this outpatient surgical procedure, the ovaries are suspended above the pelvis and removed from the field of radiation. The risk of ovarian damage is reduced, although not entirely eliminated, as there can be extension of the radiation beyond the pelvis [30]. The use of GnRH agonists to downregulate the HPG axis prior to and during chemotherapy remains controversial, as conflicting results regarding their true protective effects have been reported [31,32].…”

“…Morice et al [15] studied bilateral laparoscopic ovarian transposition in patients undergoing irradiation for pelvic tumors: One of these patients had been converted to laparotomy during laparoscopic oophoropexy and also received both brachytherapy and external beam radiation, which may have increased her risk of gonadotoxicity and she experienced ovarian failure. Hart et al [16] reported on an 18-year-old girl with medulloblastoma who underwent two laparoscopic surgeries to achieve oophoropexy to the Fig.…”

“…Anterior ovarian transposition to the lower anterior abdominal wall has been described in a case report of a patient requiring radiotherapy to the craniospinal axis for a medulloblastoma [24]. The most common sites for lateral ovarian transposition are the paracolic gutters just above the pelvic brim and posterolateral to the uterus [15].…”

“…As taxas de sucesso na preservação da função dos ovários parecem estar relacionadas basicamente a dois fatores: a realização de radioterapia pós-operatória e a idade das pacientes. Desse modo, tem-se preconizado a preservação dos ovários em pacientes com menos de 40 anos 7 .…”
