Experience and andrological follow-up after testicular tissue cryopreservation
Research question
What is the experience and mid- and long-term andrological health follow-up of (pre)pubertal males who have undergone testicular tissue freezing (TTF)?
Design
This single-centre longitudinal retrospective cohort study reports on the mid- and long-term andrological health follow-up of (pre)pubertal males and young adults who underwent TTF for fertility preservation between January 2007 and December 2018. Medical characteristics and questionnaire data collected more than 18 months after TTF were analysed.
Results
Thirty-six patients were revisited during a medical follow-up consultation. During follow-up after TTF, 72.7% of patients could not recollect their counselling consultation prior to TTF but 42.4% of them found information about the TTF process useful and sufficient. Parents’ or legal guardians’ feedback was more positive about the counselling consultation and the TTF process. After TTF and treatment, the majority of patients (76.9%) who provided a semen sample had non-obstructive azoospermia. Higher serum concentrations of FSH and LH and lower serum concentrations of inhibin B were associated with non-obstructive azoospermia compared with patients with oligozoospermia (P = 0.0182, P = 0.0245 and P = 0.0140 respectively). During cancer treatment, about half of pubertal patients reported sexual dysfunction, decreasing to approximately 20% after treatment. However, two patients had children using sperm donation and one patient had a child through natural pregnancy.
Conclusions
The involvement of parents or legal guardians is crucial in the decision-making process for fertility preservation in (pre)pubertal boys. Regular follow-up, including the use of questionnaires, is essential to provide guidance for fertility preservation programmes and information on fertility restoration options and to address the psychosocial aspects of fertility preservation.
期刊介绍:
Reproductive BioMedicine Online covers the formation, growth and differentiation of the human embryo. It is intended to bring to public attention new research on biological and clinical research on human reproduction and the human embryo including relevant studies on animals. It is published by a group of scientists and clinicians working in these fields of study. Its audience comprises researchers, clinicians, practitioners, academics and patients.
Context:
The period of human embryonic growth covered is between the formation of the primordial germ cells in the fetus until mid-pregnancy. High quality research on lower animals is included if it helps to clarify the human situation. Studies progressing to birth and later are published if they have a direct bearing on events in the earlier stages of pregnancy.
