Nonobstrüktif azoospermili erkeklerde mikrodiseksiyon testiküler sperm ekstraksiyonu başarısını etkileyen faktörler

AMAÇ: Non-obstrüktif azoospermili (NOA) erkeklerde mikrodiseksiyon testiküler sperm ekstraksiyonu (mTESE) başarısını etkileyen faktörleri araştırmak GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: NOA nedeniyle mTESE yapılan toplam 379 hastaya dahil edildi. Tüm hastaların fizik muayene, hormon değerleri, testis hacimleri ve tıbbi hikayeleri kayıt altına alındı. BULGULAR: Ortalama mTESE başarısı %46,7 olarak saptandı. Bu oran testis patolojisi Sertoli Cell Only (SCO) olan hastalarda %33,3, erken maturasyon arresti (MA) olan hastalarda %43,6, geç maturasyon arresti (MA) olanlarda %78,1, hipospermatagonez (HS) olanlarda %93,75’inde ve normal spermtogenez (NS) olanlarda %100 olarak saptandı (p

Factors affecting the success of microdissection testicular sperm extraction in men with non-obstructive azoospermia

OBJECTIVE: To determine the sperm retrieval rates (SRRs) and predictive factors of patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) after testicular sperm extraction (TESE) MATRERIAL and METHODS: A total of 311 patients who were diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and underwent TESE were included in this study. Physical examination, hormone values, testicular volumes, and the medical history of all patients were recorded RESULTS: The mean sperm retrieval rates (SRRs) were 46.7%. These SRRs were 34.2%, 33.3%, 71.4%, 100%, and 100% for Sertoli Cell Only, late maturation arrest, early maturation arrest, hypospermatogenesis, and normal spermatogenesis, respectively (p
