Abstract:
Objective To discuss the application of microsurgery in the treatment of male infertility.Methods From March 2007 to March 2012,there were totally 853 infertile men received microsurgical treatments in our department.Among them,344 patients with unilateral or bilateral varicocele underwent microsurgical varicocelectomy,60 underwent vasovasostomy (VV) and 192 underwent vastoepidystomy (VE)in microsurgical methods due to obstructive azoospermia.257 non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients were performed microdissection of testicular sperm extraction (MD-TESE),at the same time,pathologic examination was done.Results ①For the varicocele patients,the pre-operative sperm density was (10 ±6) × 106/ml,the progressive sperm percentage was (16 ± 9)％.The post-operative density was (15 ± 8) ×106/ml,the progressive sperm percentage was (28 ± 14)％.The natural pregnant rate was 10.8％ (37/344).②In 60 patients undergone VV,the patent rate was 80.0％ (48/60),the natural pregnant rate was 35.0％ (21/60).In 192 VE patients,the patent rate was 53.1％ (102/192),the natural pregnant rate was 19.8％ (38/192).③In 257 NOA patients,the testicular volume,sperm retrieval rate of MD-TESE was significantly higher than that of conventional testicular sperm extraction (60.3％ vs.38.1％).Conclusion The microsurgery techniques in male infertility treatments could have some advantages such as explicit effects and decreased injuries.
