The mini-micro-epididymal sperm aspiration for sperm retrieval: a study of urological outcomes.
Epididymal sperm aspiration and in-vitro fertilization (IVF) with intracytoplasmic sperm injection is an established treatment for obstructive azoospermia. Sperm aspiration is performed with either an incision or percutaneously. To control costs, minimize morbidity and retain the advantages of both approaches, we developed a mini-incision technique for epididymal aspiration and here report sper...
متن کاملOpen epididymal sperm aspiration (OESA): minimally invasive surgical technique for sperm retrieval.
OBJECTIVES Male infertility caused by irreparable obstructive azoospermia is widely treated with MESA (Microsurgical Epididymal Sperm Aspiration) or TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction) or PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration) followed by an Intracytoplasmatic Spermatozoa Injection (ICSI). For each procedures are claimed advantages and disadvantages. Aim of this work is to describe our ...
متن کاملMicrosurgical epididymal sperm aspiration: indications, techniques and outcomes.
Microsurgical epididymal sperm aspiration (MESA) refers to retrieval of sperm-containing fluid from optimal areas of the epididymis that are selected and sampled using high-power optical magnification provided by an operating microscope. Retrieved sperm are subsequently used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) to induce fertilization and pregnancy. MESA is considered by many experts to ...
متن کاملApplication of percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration in azoospermia.
OBJECTIVE The present study introduces the application of percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA) for diagnosis of obstructive azoospermia and non-obstructive azoospermia. PATIENTS AND METHODS 96 cases diagnosed with azoospermia were selected, standard methods were used to measure testicular volume, chemiluminescence was used to test serum sexual hormone levels, and No. 7 butterfly ne...
متن کاملMicrosurgical vasovasostomy versus microsurgical epididymal sperm aspiration/testicular extraction of sperm combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection. A cost-benefit analysis.
PURPOSE Vasovasostomy (VVS) represents the standard therapy of choice for the treatment of obstructive azoospermia following vasectomy. However, recently, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has been suggested by some to represent the solution for all cases of malefactor infertility regardless of its etiology based on its success rates. Therefore, we compared VVS to microsurgical epididymal...
