The current status of oocyte banks: domestic and international perspectives
Two major breakthroughs in the field of assisted reproduction—oocyte donation and oocyte vitrification—have joined forces to create the rapidly emerging phenomenon of commercial egg banks (CEBs). In this review, we examine the history of this concept, the operational models, the geographical variations, and the benefits and pitfalls of CEBs, including the ethical and legal dilemmas arising from gamete mobility. We highlight future directions in the brave new world of third-party reproduction.
