Two hundred thirteen testicular specimens of men with nonobstructive azoospermia were obtained by large-needle percutaneous aspiration biopsy. The mean values of the number of seminiferous tubules per histologic section, dimension, weight, and the fraction of biopsies with spermatogenetic cells (53, 0.2 x 0.3 x 0.62 cm, 385 mg, and 63%, respectively) were similar to those obtained by open or other surgical biopsy techniques that were used for assisted fertilization in the same type of patients.

Abstract

Two hundred thirteen testicular specimens of men with nonobstructive azoospermia were obtained by large-needle percutaneous aspiration biopsy. The mean values of the number of seminiferous tubules per histologic section, dimension, weight, and the fraction of biopsies with spermatogenetic cells (53, 0.2 x 0.3 x 0.62 cm, 385 mg, and 63%, respectively) were similar to those obtained by open or other surgical biopsy techniques that were used for assisted fertilization in the same type of patients.
