Abstract

This seventh statement of the ESHRE Task Force on Ethics and Law considers ethical questions and specific dilemmas surrounding the cryopreservation of gametes and reproductive tissue. This is of particular relevance with advancing techniques for cryopreservation and the desire of many individuals to preserve fertility after cancer, chronic illness, iatrogenic complications of treatment or simply with advancing age.
