Ovarian Laparoscopic In Vivo Activation of Ovary for Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

Not Applicable
Conditions
Primary Ovarian Insufficiency
Interventions
Device: OLIVA device
Registration Number
NCT03034616
Lead Sponsor
Hadassah Medical Organization
Brief Summary

The OLIVA device will enable to perform shallow slashes on the ovarian cortex in patients undergoing oophorectomy. Prior to the resection of the ovary from the pedicle we will perform 5 parallel slashes 3 cm long. following oophorectomy investigation by the pathologist as to the depth of cuts and proximity to blood vessels and later.

Detailed Description

The OLIVA device is built of 5 parallel razor blades enclosed by protective cap

ex vivo activationOLIVA device'OLIVA device' in patients that undergo oophorectomy on the cortex of the removed ovary we will perform 5 parallel slashes 3 cm long. this will be followed by investigation by the pathologist as to the depth of cuts.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Depth of cuts and closeness to blood vesselUp to 30 days after procedure

The pathologist will measure the ovarian tissue after oophorectomy. The pathologist will assess whether the cuts into the cortex are superficial or penetrating the cortex into the medulla of the ovary. Another assessment is proximity of the cuts to ovarian vessels. The pathology report will aggregate the results of all measurements and will assess the safety of the OLIVA device

Secondary Outcome Measures
