Should testicular sperm retrieval be implemented for intracytoplasmic sperm injection in all patients with severe oligozoospermia or cryptozoospermia?
This study underscores the significance of considering sperm concentration when advising on sperm retrieval techniques to improve ICSI outcomes in men diagnosed with severe oligozoospermia or cryptozoospermia. Further research is necessary to confirm predictive factors that assist in decision-making regarding the source of sperm, whether from ejaculate, testicular aspiration, or biopsies.
