Interventions
Treating Absolute Uterine Factor Infertility by Uterus Transplant. Potential recipients undergo IVF to obtain 6 embryos for cryopreservation followed by live donor uterine transplant. After 1 year, embryo transfer is done to achieve pregnancy. Delivery is by Caesarian section. The recipient may have up to 2 children by these methods and then the uterus is removed so that immunosuppression can be stopped.
