Article Synopsis
- * A total of 128 microTESE procedures were analyzed, with fresh cases showing 67.7% sperm retrieval success and 85.7% motility, while frozen cases had 45.3% retrieval and a significant drop in motility after thawing.
- * Results suggest that fresh microTESE may provide better outcomes for sperm motility and ICSI potential, emphasizing the importance of patient selection and counseling about treatment options.
Background: Little is known about the role of the genitourinary and gastrointestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of male infertility.
Objective: To compare the taxonomic and functional profiles of the gut, semen, and urine microbiomes of infertile and fertile men.
Design, Setting, And Participants: We prospectively enrolled 25 men with primary idiopathic infertility and 12 healthy men with proven paternity, and we collected rectal swabs, semen samples, midstream urine specimens, and experimental controls.
Objective: To present a novel surgical approach to performing bulbar urethroplasty and to assess its initial outcomes and safety.
Materials And Methods: From January 2016 to March 2019, anastomotic urethroplasty without full mobilization and dissection of corpus spongiosum dorsal semicircumference was performed in 8 males with bulbar strictures by a single surgeon. Patients were given uroflowmetry, urethrography, and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) questionnaires at their 3- and 12- month follow-up visits postoperatively.
Objective: To determine if there has been a change in empirical medical therapy (EMT) practices since a 2010 American Urological Association survey reported that 25% of urologists treated infertile men who were pursuing a pregnancy with testosterone (T).
Design: Survey-based cohort study of AUA members.
Setting: Practice patterns were evaluated of urologists in academic and nonacademic hospital centers.
Objective: To examine whether men who were childless at the time of vasectomy sought consultation for fertility restoration.
Methods: Retrospective chart review was performed to determine if patients without children at the time of vasectomy sought consultation for fertility restoration (defined as vasectomy reversal or sperm retrieval). If the patient had not been seen in our healthcare system within the previous 12 months, he was contacted by phone to determine whether he had sought consultation for fertility restoration.
