INTRODUCTION: Advances in cancer therapy have improved the long-term survival of cancer patients. Concerns about fertility represent a major issue for young cancer patients. The emergent discipline of oncofertility, an intersection between oncology and fertility, is a new concept that describes an integrated network of clinical resources that focus on fertility preservation from both clinical and research perspectives. Patients and methods: In this article we describe our designated multidisciplinary program for fertility preservation in pediatric and young adult populations. The program is also designed to serve as a prospective platform for the evaluation of reproductive outcomes in this patient cohort. RESULTS: We have observed considerably higher referral rates following launching the program and earlier referral of chemonaïve patients that concedes maximal fertility preservation. Two hundred and thirty five patients were referred to the program over a period of 3 years. CONCLUSIONS: Our program demonstrates that multidisciplinary programs that encompass relevant specialists, skilled laboratory resources and a facilitated path that drives the process in the shortest time, maximizes the yield.
