Abstract:
Azoospermia accounted for 10-15% of infertility cases. It is classified into 2 groups: obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia. Infertility couples due to azoospermia can be treated by some assisted reproductive techniques, such as epididymal sperm aspiration (MESA and PESA techniques), testicular sperm aspiration (TESA) or testicular sperm extraction (TESE). The success can be expected for cases with obstructive azoospermia.
