A 28-year-old woman gave birth to a healthy baby girl after an ovarian tissue transplant reversed infertility caused by cancer treatment, doctors in Israel are reporting. Last year, a Belgian woman gave birth after such an operation, but the claim was controversial because the egg could have come from her remaining ovary, not the transplanted tissue.The case reported Monday by Dr. Dror Meirow of Sheba Medical Center in Tel Aviv is more convincing because menopause was documented for two years before the transplant. The New England Journal of Medicine reported the case on the Internet and will publish it in its July 21 issue.
