Chemotherapy and radiotherapy induce premature ovarian failure in many patients treated for oncological or benign diseases. The present paper reviews the risk of developing premature ovarian failure according to the type of treatment and the different options to preserve fertility, focusing on the cryopreservation of ovarian tissue. This technique constitutes a promising approach to preserve the fertility of young patients and offers the advantage of storing a large number of follicles that could be subsequently transplanted or cultured in vitro to obtain mature oocytes. Based on 34 requests, from which 19 were performed, the feasibility of the ovarian cryopreservation procedure is evaluated. The medical and ethical approaches of this protocol are also discussed. Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue constitutes new hope for many patients, but must still be kept for selected cases, with a significant risk of premature ovarian failure after treatments such as bone marrow transplantation.

This paper introduces new results obtained from a statistical investigation into a 3071-observation data set collected from a Vietnamese nationwide entrepreneurship survey. From established relationships, such factors as preparedness, financial resources and participation in social networks are confirmed to have significant effects on entrepreneurial decisions. Entrepreneurs, both financially constrained and unconstrained, who have a business plan tend to start their entrepreneurial ventures earlier. Also, financial constraints have a profound impact on the entrepreneurial decisions. When perceiving the likelihood of success to be high, an entrepreneur shows the tendency for prompt action on business ideas. But when seeing the risk of prolonging the waiting time to first revenue, a prospective entrepreneur would be more likely to wait for more favorable conditions despite the vagueness of "favorable". Additionally, empirical computations indicate that there is a 41.3% probability that an extant entrepreneur who is generating revenue sees high chance of success. Past work and entrepreneurial experiences also have positive impacts on both the entrepreneurial decisions and perceived chance of success.
