Assisted reproductive technology in the management of azoospermic men--the Austrian experience.

Experience with intracytoplasmic injection of epididymal (MESA) and testicular spermatozoa (TESE) in Austria is summarized. Data from recent publications in scientific journals and results presented at different meetings were stratified for male factors, sperm retrieval methods, assisted reproductive techniques and conceptions. Four cooperative groups of andrologists and gynaecologists reported on MESA and TESE in Austria.
