Abstract
Lateral ovarian transposition before pelvic irradiation may preserve ovarian function in young women with gynecologic or nongynecologic cancer. We performed high lateral, transposition of both ovaries in a 17-year-old woman with primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the sacrum with subsequent preservation of menstrual cyclicity.
