“…To date, five case reports of oocyte retrieval from a tumor-affected ovary during laparotomic oophorectomy have been published [23456]. However, this is the first case in which a random-start COS protocol was applied in an ovarian cancer patient who required debulking surgery (Table 1) [23456].…”

“…In the other two reports, patients had undergone oocyte retrieval after a conventional COS protocol [56]. Because conventional COS protocols require 2 to 5 weeks depending on the patients' menstrual cycle, conventional COS is not optimal for emergency fertility preservation in cancer patients.…”

“…There are cases where the follicle is near the tumor making aspiration difficult, or where the tumor mass is near the vagina in the way of aspiration. In contrast, during a debulking operation for ovarian cancer, careful oocyte retrieval using a laparotomic approach can be performed without penetrating the tumor and without causing cancer cell spillage [23456]. …”

Herein, we report a case of successful mature oocyte retrieval during laparotomy after random-start controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in a 21-year-old nulliparous woman with suspected recurrent ovarian immature teratoma. The patient had been diagnosed with stage IIIC immature teratoma two years earlier following a staging operation, including right oophorectomy and left ovarian cystectomy. And she had subsequently undergone four rounds of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin. Approximately two years after the initial surgery, she was strongly suspected of having recurrent ovarian immature teratoma on radiologic follow-up. We performed random-start COS and in vivo oocyte retrieval during laparotomic debulking surgery including left oophorectomy. Eight mature oocytes were successfully retrieved and vitrified for fertility preservation. The final pathologic diagnosis was mature cystic teratoma of the ovary and peritoneal implants consistent with gliomatosis peritonei. This is the first case report in which random-start COS and in vivo oocyte retrieval were performed.

“…Both cases were in the setting of serous tumors of low malignant potential and both patients underwent ex vivo oocyte retrieval resulting in embryo cryopreservation 3 and oocyte cryopreservation, respectively. 4 We present a case of a patient with frankly invasive ovarian cancer undergoing surgery and in vivo oocyte retrieval.…”

Oocyte cryopreservation through controlled ovarian hyperstimulation leading up to oocyte retrieval at the time of surgical staging for gynecologic malignancies can be coordinated in a timely fashion, affording fertility preservation without significant treatment delay. Greater awareness of this capability may prompt extension of oocyte cryopreservation services to all potential candidates and help mobilize the establishment of referral pathways and multidisciplinary teams of general gynecologists, gynecologic oncologists, and reproductive endocrinologists.

AimIn recent years, the importance of fertility preservation (FP) has increased. In vitro maturation (IVM), an important technique in FP, has started to be used in the clinic, but controversies persist regarding this technique. Here, a survey of IVM for FP is provided.MethodsBased on a literature review, the applications of FP, methods of FP, IVM of oocytes that had been collected in vivo and ex vivo, maturation of oocytes after IVM for FP, cryopreservation of oocytes for FP, explanation of the procedures to patients, and recent research on FP using IVM were investigated.ResultsAlthough IVM for FP remains controversial, the application of FP is expected to expand. Depending on the age and disease status of the patient, various methods of oocyte collection and ovarian stimulation, as well as various needle types and aspiration pressures, have been reported. The maturation rate of IVM in FP ranges widely and requires optimization in the future. In regard to cryopreservation for matured oocytes, the vitrification method is currently recommended.ConclusionRegarding FP for patients with cancer, the treatment of cancer is prioritized; thus, the time and use of medicines are often constrained. As several key points regarding IVM remain unclear, well‐designed and specific counseling for patients is necessary.
