OU Health, the University of Oklahoma’s academic health system, is the first health system in Oklahoma to offer testicular tissue preservation for prepubescent boys facing cancer treatments that could affect their future fertility. This procedure provides a potential path to biological parenthood when conventional methods, such as sperm banking, are not feasible.
The advancement offers new hope to families whose children face cancer treatments that could compromise future fertility. By introducing testicular tissue cryopreservation, OU Health is expanding access to leading-edge preservation techniques previously unavailable in Oklahoma.
