“…A retrospective cohort study of 605 thawed autologous egg cycles in 543 patients who underwent 436 embryo transfers provides real-life data to adequately counsel patients. The mean time for which the patients kept their oocytes frozen was 4.2 years, with a mean age of 38.2 years, similar to the previously published data (2)(3)(4).…”

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Cryopreservation is the most prevalent method of long‐term cell preservation. Effective cell cryopreservation depends on freezing, adequate storage, and correct thawing techniques. Recent advances in cryopreservation techniques minimize the cellular damage which occurs while processing samples. This article focuses on the fundamentals of cryopreservation techniques and how they can be implemented in a variety of clinical settings. The article presents a brief description of each of the standard cryopreservation procedures, such as slow freezing and vitrification. Alongside that, the membrane permeating and nonpermeating cryoprotectants are briefly discussed, along with current advancements in the field of cryopreservation and variables influencing the cryopreservation process. The diminution of cryoinjury incurred by the cell via the resuscitation process will also be highlighted. In the end application of cryopreservation techniques in many fields, with a special emphasis on stem cell preservation techniques and current advancements presented. Furthermore, the challenges while implementing cryopreservation and the futuristic scope of the fields are illustrated herein. The content of this review sheds light on various ways to enhance the output of the cell preservation process and minimize cryoinjury while improving cell revival.

“…1 The procedure is claimed to empower women, allowing them to fulfill their reproductive plans without being constrained by their biological clock. 1 France is the first country to offer this option through the public health system to women between the ages of 29 and 37 years. 2 However, integration of elective egg freezing into public health care systems warrants in-depth considerations.…”

“…The procedure of egg collection is not devoid of threats, and obstetric risks increase with age irrespective of the timing of oocyte storage. 1 Regarding effectiveness, there is also evidence of a modest proportion of women who come back to thaw their oocytes and only a subgroup will achieve a live birth. 4 To note, available information on the return rate is insufficient and mainly derived from private practice settings and affluent women, hampering inferences to the general population.…”
