Testicular sperm extraction (TESE) is an effective method for sperm retrieval from men with non-obstructive azoospermia [...] However, the conventional TESE technique requires multiple blind testis biopsies, with excision of large volumes (>700 mg) of testicular tissue and risks permanent damage to the testis. Using optical magnification, a relatively avascular region of the testis is located for an incision. 3, record 1, English, - testicular%20sperm%20extraction

Le prélèvement chirurgical des spermatozoïdes (MESA/TESE). Il arrive que le sperme obtenu par masturbation ne contienne aucun spermatozoïde [...] Dans ces cas, on peut trouver des spermatozoïdes sains dans l'épididyme ou les testicules. MESA signifie "aspiration microchirurgicale des spermatozoïdes" [...] TESE signifie "extraction testiculaire de spermatozoïdes". Ce procédé consiste en un prélèvement de tissu testiculaire (biopsie) et offre encore jusqu'à 75% de chances de trouver des spermatozoïdes. 3, record 1, French, - extraction%20testiculaire%20de%20spermatozo%C3%AFdes
