Abstract
TESE-ICSI (testicular sperm extraction associated with intracytoplasmic sperm injection) represents a technique to attain pregnancy in couples with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and other unlikely situations. Because of the poor pregnancy outcomes obtained by this procedure, we need new sperm selection techniques to improve the livebirth rate of NOA patients. Here we describe a successful micro TESE-ICSI cycle performed with sperm selected through high magnification and polarized light microscopy in a couple with two previous ICSI failures.
