The authors report the first pregnancy and live birth in Turkey and the second live birth in the world following transplantation of frozen-thawed ovarian tissue in a leukemia survivor. As the transplanted tissues were removed during caesarean delivery, histological findings prove the functionality and the malignant-free status of the transplanted tissue during the grafted period.
