Abstract

In chapters “Breast Cancer, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Acute Leukaemia, Ovarian Tumours and Ovarian Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Endometrial Hyperplasia and Endometrial Carcinoma, Paediatric Oncological Cancer” and “Non-Malignant Diseases Requiring Stem Cell Transplantation; Severe Autoimmune Diseases; Endometriosis; Turner Syndrome; Transgender”, this book covers in detail approximately two-third of all diseases for which fertility preservation therapy is indicated. Other, but considerably less frequent diseases are presented in tabular form in this chapter in terms of their frequency, 5-year survival rate, gonadotoxicity of oncological treatment and the potential risk of gonadal metastases occurring. Recommendations for fertility preservation are derived from this. Overall, around 80% of the diseases requiring fertility preservation are described in this book.
