Infertility treatment of men with non-obstructive azoospermia.

چکیده
Male infertility can be treated by several methods with varying degree of success. We present evidence that "open" testicular biopsy is favorable for men suffering from non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). Moreover, any NOA patient may be subjected to this treatment even though his past histopathological examinations suggest that it is likely no sperm will be found in the testicular tissue. Thus, we recommend the testicular sperm extraction (TESE) procedure for NOA patients.

Objective Approximately 15 percent of couples are infertile. The male factor is responsible for approximately 50% of the cases. One of the main genetic factors playing a role in male infertility is Y chromosomal microdeletion within the proximal long arm of the Y chromosome (Yq11), named azoospermia factor (AZF) region. Recent studies have also demonstrated that there is a potential connection ...

Background The genetic association between cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations and male infertility due to congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD) is well established. Mutant CFTR, however may also be involved in the etiology of male infertility in non-CBAVD cases. The present study was conducted to estimate the frequency of ΔI507 and ΔF508 CFT...

Background: About 15% of couples worldwide suffer from infertility problem that half of these cases are related to male infertility. Spermatogenesis is a cumulative process and thousands of genes are involved in it. Change in one of these genes or their products can cause male infertility. Tex11 is a germ cell specific gene that is located on the X chromosome (Xq13.1 region). This gene was iden...

متن کاملThe role of varicocele treatment in the management of non-obstructive azoospermia
The literature on male reproductive medicine is continually expanding, especially regarding the diagnosis and treatment of infertility due to non-obstructive azoospermia. The advent of in vitro fertilization with intracytoplasmic sperm injection has dramatically improved the treatment of male infertility due to nonobstructive azoospermia. Assisted reproduction using testicular spermatozoa has b...
