    Abstract
    Two cases are reported of successful pregnancies following long-term semen banking prior to chemotherapy and radiotherapy for malignancy. With the first case, the patient banked semen at the age of 20 years prior to chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease; 11 years later the thawed semen was used for IVF with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), resulting in twins being born following the transfer of frozen-thawed embryos. In the second case, the patient banked semen at the age of 17 years prior to chemotherapy and radiotherapy for acute myeloid leukaemia; 8 years later it was used for ICSI, resulting in triplets being born following the transfer of frozen-thawed embryos. These cases support long-term semen banking for men whose future fertility may be compromised by suppression of spermatogenesis secondary to administration of chemo/radiotherapy treatment. The advent of successful ICSI combined with embryo cryopreservation has increased the chance of thawed cryopreserved semen achieving fertilization. Banking of a single ejaculate prior to commencement of chemotherapy/radiotherapy treatment may preserve potential fertility without compromising the oncology treatment.
