Is testicular microdissection the only way to retrieve sperm for non-obstructive azoospermic men?

Frontiers in Reproductive Health, 2022
Men presenting with non-obstructive azoospermia are the most challenging clinical scenario for an infertile couple. Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) with testicular sperm retrieval gave a chance for biological fatherhood once sperm can be found ...

Circulating microRNAs in seminal plasma as predictors of sperm retrieval in microdissection testicular sperm extraction

Annals of Translational Medicine, 2021
Background Because of focal spermatogenesis in some nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients, testicular spermatozoa can be retrieved by microdissection testicular sperm extraction (micro-TESE) for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) to achieve ...

Intrasurgical parameters associated with successful sperm retrieval in patients with non‐obstructive azoospermia undergoing salvage microdissection testicular sperm extraction

Andrology, 2021
Patients with non‐obstructive azoospermia with a previously failed conventional testicular sperm extraction may undergo a salvage microdissection testicular sperm extraction with the probability of successful sperm retrieval being almost dependent upon ...

The relationship of testicular stiffness with Johnsen score and sperm retrieval outcome in men with non-obstructive azoospermia

Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery
Background 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 ...

Semen biomarker TEX101 predicts sperm retrieval success for men with testicular failure

F1000Research, 2021
Background:  Azoospermia could be due to either obstruction (obstructive azoospermia: OA) or spermatogenic failure (non-obstructive azoospermia: NOA).

The expression of Beclin-1 in testicular tissues of non-obstructive azoospermia patients and its predictive value in sperm retrieval rate

Translational Andrology and Urology, 2021
Background Beclin-1 is an autophagy gene and higher levels suggest mammalian testicular damage. Our study aims at exploring the role of Beclin-1 in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients and clarifying the predictive value of Beclin-1for sperm ...
