Localization of obstruction sites in obstructive azoospermia: role of combined transscrotal–transrectal ultrasonography
The diagnostic performance of combined transscrotal-transrectal ultrasonography in obstructive azoospermia was evaluated. Ultrasound measurements of specific structures significantly improve the prediction of obstruction sites. Combined transscrotal-transrectal ultrasonography accurately localizes obstruction sites in obstructive azoospermia patients.
