Survey reveals high spontaneous pregnancy rate in testicular cancer patients post-antineoplastic therapy, highlighting cryopreservation benefits.

To evaluate fertility outcomes in testicular cancer patients after anticancer treatment and assess sperm preservation techniques.
Survey conducted with patients who underwent sperm cryopreservation
86 men evaluated for semen preservation before treatment
59 participants completed a structured questionnaire on fertility and treatment effects
Follow-up averaged 4.6 years post-treatment
11.9% of patients used banked sperm, leading to a 57% live birth rate
22% spontaneous pregnancy rate observed among partners
In vitro fertilization resulted in 4 live births and 2 miscarriages
No significant association between preserved fertility and treatment type or histology
