Use of conventional assisted reproductive technologies and history of cancer: What are the results? [Recours aux techniques conventionnelles d'assistance médicale à la procréation en cas d'antécédent cancer: Quels résultats ?]

摘要

Therapeutic advances in oncology have improved the prognosis for long-term survival of children and young adults. As well as other couples or because of adverse side effects of cancer treatments on reproductive function, some cancer survivors will therefore be brought to use assisted reproductive technologies (intrauterine inseminations, in vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection, oocyte or sperm donation...). The purpose of this review is to summarize available scientific datas regarding success rate of assisted reproductive technologies in cancer survivors.
