Uterus transplantation – substantial progress in research but not yet ready for the clinic

چکیده
The very rapid advancements in assisted reproductive techniques (ART) during the last decades have been driven by a general progress in medical research but also by a great desire of the society to be able to fulfill the basic human need to reproduce. Since the birth of the first IVF-baby in 1978, new techniques such as intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), pregestational diagnosis (PGS) and ovarian cryopreservation have been introduced. The vast majority of infertile couples can now become parents with the aid of new sophisticated treatment modalities. The last hurdle to overcome in the effort to treat infertility is absolute uterine infertility. The women with absolute uterine infertility are those that either are born with no uterus, women that have lost the uterus through hysterectomy, or women that have a deficient uterus in regards to implantation or pregnancy.
