Predictors of testicular sperm retrieval in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia: a review
Journal of International Medical Research, 2021 Azoospermia is divided into two categories of obstructive azoospermia and non-obstructive azoospermia. Before 1995, couples with a male partner diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia had to choose sperm donation or adoption to have a child. Currently,

The relationship of testicular stiffness with Johnsen score and sperm retrieval outcome in men with non-obstructive azoospermia. [PDF]
Quant Imaging Med SurgBackground The pathological Johnsen score (JS) is a quantitative histological scoring system used to assess spermatogenesis in men with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA), while elastic modulus derived from shear wave elastography (SWE) is a diagnostic ...
