Topic: Spermatogenesis



  
 Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology Full text Understanding spermatogenesis is a prerequisite for treatment
The process of spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules is maintained by different internal and external influences.
Nowadays availble methods of assisted reproduction are founded in basic knowledge of spermatogenesis [33].
Six of these typical aspects were described in the human testis as "stages of spermatogenesis".

 Microsurgical TESE and the distribution of spermatogenesis in non-obstructive azoospermia - Sherman J. Silber, M.D.
However, control studies have shown that for difficult cases of non-obstructive azoospermia, where spermatogenesis is very meagre, needle biopsy is much less likely to find the rare foci of spermatogenesis for ICSI than open biopsy (Friedler et al., 1997; Rosenlund et al., 1998).
The theoretical basis for attempting to retrieve spermatozoa for ICSI from the testes of men with apparent absence of spermatogenesis was based on early quantitative histological studies from testicle biopsy in fertile and infertile men (Zuckerman et al., 1978; Silber and Rodriguez-Rigau, 1981).
The purpose of the present study was to address questions that remain after our initial quantitative study regarding the distribution of spermatogenesis in azoospermic men, and to outline a microsurgical approach to TESE that is consistent with these findings (Silber et al., 1997).
