Predictors of testicular sperm retrieval in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia: a review
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,

Physiological consequences of testicular sperm extraction [PDF]
Testicular sperm extraction (TESE) may provide spermatozoa for attempts at fertility with assisted reproduction; however, the physiological effects of TESE on testicular function are not well understood. In order to evaluate the effects of TESE on the testis, 64 patients were evaluated after TESE for non-obstructive azoospermia with physical ...

Annual variation in the levels of transcripts of sex-specific genes in the mantle of the common mussel, Mytilus edulis [PDF]
Mytilus species are used as sentinels for the assessment of environmental health but sex or stage in the reproduction cycle is rarely considered even though both parameters are likely to influence responses to pollution.

Testicular Sperm Extraction Techniques in Subfertile Males
Introduction: Assisted conception is an option for subfertile couples. Surgical sperm retrieval by testicular sperm aspiration and testicular sperm extraction are widely used safe techniques to yield sperm for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Experience

Testicular expression of TDRD1, TDRD5, TDRD9 and TDRD12 in azoospermia. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tudor domain-containing proteins (TDRDs) play a critical role in piRNA biogenesis and germ cell development. piRNAs, small regulatory RNAs, act by silencing of transposons during germline development and it has recently been shown in animal ...

Microdissection testicular sperm extraction: an update [PDF]
Patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) were once considered to be infertile with few treatment options due to the absence of sperm in the ejaculate. In the last two decades, the advent of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and the application of various testicular sperm retrieval techniques, including fine needle aspiration (FNA ...

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

MICROSCOPIC TESTICULAR SPERM EXTRACTION
Azoospermia, the complete absence of sperms in the ejaculate is found in 1% ofnormal males and 10-15% of infertile couples. Surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) and use of spermsfor ICSI/IVF offers an opportunity of parenting to the male factor infertile couples.
