This chapter focuses on the genetic basis of male infertility. The male specific Y (MSY) is a chromosomal material that bridges the two polar pseudoautosomal regions and is unique in the human genome. A karyotype and Y-chromosomal microdeletion assay should be obtained as complementary tests in all non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and severely ...

Azoospermia: Surgical Sperm Retrieval
2013Recent advances in techniques for surgical sperm retrieval and the advent of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) allow for biological paternity in azoospermic men for whom the only available treatments a mere 20 years ago were use of donor sperm or adoption.

Surgical sperm retrieval: what not to do
Fertility and Sterility, 2008Surgical sperm retrieval has revolutionized the treatment of azoospermia. However, the ease with which it could be performed meant that it is perhaps being used where not indicated. Here are the potential pitfalls to be avoided.

SUCCESSFUL SPERM RETRIEVAL BY PERCUTANEOUS EPIDIDYMAL AND TESTICULAR SPERM ASPIRATION
Journal of Urology, 1998We evaluated the safety and efficacy of percutaneous sperm aspiration from the epididymis or testicle as a diagnostic technique to confirm sperm production and as a therapeutic technique to harvest sperm for use in intracytoplasmic sperm injection.We present our experience with 69 sperm aspiration procedures in men considered to have nonreconstructible

Male Infertility: Evaluation and Sperm Retrieval
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2006For all men with infertility, a complete history and physical examination is recommended to identify potentially correctable causes of male factor infertility. The ASRM Practice Committee recommended that initial evaluation of men and women in an infertile couple proceed in parallel and be ...

Simplified sperm retrieval and intracytoplasmic sperm injection in patients with azoospermia
British Journal of Urology, 1995Objective To evaluate the rate of recovery of spermatozoa from the epididymis using a percutaneous aspiration technique and to assess the fertilization rate following intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).Patients and methods Forty‐two patients with azoospermia underwent a total of 46 treatment cycles of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and ICSI.
