Predictors of sperm retrieval success in first-time and repeated Micro-TESE for nonobstructive azoospermia
First-time micro-TESE users had a significantly higher sperm retrieval rate than those undergoing repeated attempts. Repeated TESE was associated with older age, higher smoking rates and adverse hormonal profiles. Larger studies are needed to validate these findings and optimize patient selection for repeated micro-TESE.
