Resumo

Background: The main advantage of the cryopreservation of ovarian fragments is a thinner tissue, which facilitates the penetration of cryoprotective agents, but the size of tissue may not be a limiting factor in achieving a successful cryopreservation of the ovarian tissue. This information is highly significant considering that the cryopreservation of hemi-ovary or whole ovary may preserve the entire or major part of the contingent of primordial follicles of ovarian fragments. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the vitrification of different dimensions goat ovarian tissue on the follicular morphology, viability, diameter, and the stromal cell density. Materials, Methods & Results: The ovarian tissue was vitrified as fragment, hemi-ovary, or whole ovary, and after warming, the preantral follicles were examined by trypan blue dye exclusion test and histological analysis. Preantral follicles incubated with trypan blue were considered viable if the oocyte and granulosa cells remained unstained. Preantral follicles were classified as morphologically normal only when they contained intact oocyte and granulosa cells. The follicular diameter was measured considering the major and minor axes of each follicle; the average of these 2 measurements was used to determine the diameter of each follicle. Ovarian stroma cells density was evaluated by calculating the number of
