MIRACLE TWINS: Seven Years After Her Ovaries Were Removed Woman Gets Pregnant With Twins
A woman who thought she might never be able to have children is now pregnant with twins. Vali, from Brisbane, Australia, had both ovaries removed seven years ago as part of a cancer treatment.
Just before the surgery, she asked doctors to preserve some of her ovarian tissue.
In 2010, doctors grafted some of the tissue to her abdominal wall. They performed a second graft in 2012. She was able to produce two eggs, which were then fertilized and placed back inside her uterus.
