Successful oocyte donation after stage 1C serous ovarian cancer

A stage 1C serous epithelial cancer was discovered and treated during laparoscopy performed for infertility investigation. An immediate in-vitro fertilization (IVF) was scheduled to obtain frozen embryos. Oncological treatment was then completed by radical surgery (with uterine conservation) and chemotherapy. Two years later, the thawed embryos were unsuccessfully transferred. However, following oocyte donation, the patient became pregnant and delivered two babies. From this observation, the authors discuss the strategy required in cases of early ovarian cancer associated with infertility.
