Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Transplant success
Efficacy as measured by successful graft transplantation with no clinical, immunological or radiological signs of graft rejection within the first 12 months post-operatively.
12 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Pregnancy rate
24 months
Live birth rate
36 months
Study Arms (1)
Uterine transplant
EXPERIMENTAL10 patients will be appropriately selected to undergo oocyte retrieval and freezing. Subsequently deceased donor allograft excision will take place prior to uterine transplantation. Immunosuppressive agents will be used to optimise graft success until successful In-vitro fertilisation and subsequent delivery by Caesarean Section
Interventions
10 Patients will undergo oocyte retrieval and freezing
Appropriately matched uterine transplant allografts will be excised from deceased donors
Following egg freezing the patients will undergo uterine transplant from deceased donors
Patients will be appropriately immunosuppressed, whilst being closely monitored clinically, radiologically and immunologically.
12 months after successful transplantation,the patients will undergo IVF
Following successful conception and antenatal period, the babies will be born by Caesarean Section
