Availability of Fertility Preservation Information on the Websites of U.S. News and World Report Top-Ranked Pediatric Cancer Programs.

Purpose: To evaluate the availability of fertility preservation (FP) services and educational resources on the websites of top-ranked U.S. pediatric cancer programs. Methods: Cross-sectional survey of information and resources related to FP on websites from top-ranked pediatric cancer programs according to the 2018-2019 U.S.-News & World Report (USNWR) ranking. Factors that predicted the website availability of FP information or a fertility team were analyzed, as was availability in Spanish and for specific groups by sex and puberty status. As a surrogate marker of comprehensive oncological services, the availability of resources for psychological support was compared to FP. Results: A fertility team was referenced on the website of 36% of programs, but only 32% provided FP educational resources for patients. Among them, 100%, 93.8%, 93.8%, and 68.8% provided specific information for postpubertal females, prepubertal females, postpubertal males, and prepubertal males, respectively. The majority (93.8%) did not provide information in Spanish. The ranking on USNWR (p < 0.05) and patient volume (p < 0.05) positively correlated with the availability of FP information and fertility team on the program's website. Information regarding psychological support was provided more often than information regarding FP (96% vs. 32%, p < 0.05). Conclusion: The majority of the top-ranked pediatric cancer programs in the United States do not list FP resources or a fertility team on their website. The lack of resources is particularly concerning for the Spanish-speaking population, as well as for prepubertal males. This may be potentially hindering access to FP and contributing to health care disparities.
