Abstract
Turner syndrome (TS) leads to a characteristic phenotype, including premature ovarian insufficiency and infertility. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is becoming an established fertility preservation strategy for both pre- and post-pubertal females and may offer the chance of having a biological family to selected patients with TS. To date, women with TS have had ovarian tissue cryopreserved but there are few reports of autologous re-implantation and none of pregnancy. We herein report, to our knowledge, the first clinical pregnancy in a patient with TS, conceived naturally following re-implantation of cryopreserved ovarian tissue which had been removed soon after spontaneous puberty. This provides proof of concept for OTC as a means of fertility preservation in TS.
