Therapeutic advances in many medical fields have led to the need to consider patient quality of life after curative medico-surgical treatments for malignancy. Thus, it has become a major issue for young patients to preserve the ability to become "genetic" parents, with their own gametes. While the preservation of male fertility has been an established technique for more than 30 years, it is only in the last decade that progress in cryopreservation techniques has allowed surgeons to offer successful oocyte and ovarian tissue cryobanking. However, in addition to the still experimental nature of some fertility preservation techniques, this practice also raises many ethical and moral questions.
许多医学领域的治疗进展使得人们有必要在对恶性肿瘤进行根治性药物和手术治疗后考虑患者的生活质量。因此，对于年轻患者而言，保留利用自身配子成为“遗传”父母的能力已成为一个重大问题。虽然男性生育力保存作为一项成熟技术已有30多年历史，但直到最近十年，冷冻保存技术的进步才使外科医生能够成功开展卵母细胞和卵巢组织冷冻保存。然而，除了一些生育力保存技术仍处于实验阶段外，这种做法还引发了许多伦理和道德问题。
