Resum
Introduction: Uterus transplantation is a novel surgical procedure that allows women with absolute uterine factor infertility to carry a pregnancy and give birth. While previous studies have explored the attitudes of women with absolute uterine factor infertility toward uterus transplantation, none have surveyed and compare their views with other groups of interest (Morris syndrome women, relatives of Morris syndrome and Rokitansky syndrome women, infertile women and women of childbearing age) in the same sociocultural setting. The objective of this study was to evaluate attitudes and insights regarding uterus transplantation among women with Rokitansky syndrome and other groups of interest.Material and Methods: We designed a cross-sectional study including five groups of women: women with Rokitansky syndrome, women with Morris syndrome, relatives of women with Morris and Rokitansky syndrome, infertile women, and childbearing-agewomen. We conducted an online survey through the REDCap platform. The link was distributed by mail, telephone and in hospital outpatient visits. Baseline demographic information was assessed and information regarding motherhood preferences, attitude toward uterus transplantation, preferred uterus graft and perception of risk of the procedure was collected.Results: We obtained a total of 200 responses, with a mean participant age of 34.5 years (±9.8). Overall, 17.5% (n = 35) were women with Rokitansky syndrome, 5.5% (n = 11) Morris syndrome women, 21.5% (n = 43) infertile women, 26.5% (n = 53)relatives of Morris and Rokitansky syndrome women and 29% (n = 58) childbearing-age women. 71.5% of women with Rokitansky syndrome would undergo uterus transplantations ahead of adoption and surrogacy with no statistically significant differences found between groups. Overall, more than one-half (58%) would prefer deceased over living donor.
