Introduction: Hypospermatogenesis is a common histopathological subtype of non-obstructive azoospermia and is characterized by a decrease in the total number of germ cells within the seminiferous tubule as a result of spermatogenic failure. Determination of genetic factors before intracytoplasmic sperm injection can prevent the inheritance of these factors, as hypospermatogenesis patients gives high successful sperm retrieval rate.
