offers Testicular Tissue Cryopreservation
to Prepubertal Patients | | |
The Fertility Preservation Program of Pittsburgh, in coordination
with the Center for Fertility & Reproductive Endocrinology at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, provides ovarian and testicular tissue cryopreservation, as well as semen, embryo and oocyte cryopreservation.
Testicular tissue cryopreservation (TTC) for prepubertal boys, offered under an IRB protocol at the Center, is the only fertility preservation option available for prepubertal boys with cancer. The program is led by Kyle Orwig, PhD, and is one of the few centers in the U.S. to offer this service.
