MicroTESE vs TESE
Microsurgical Testicular Sperm Extraction (MicroTESE) is advanced type of Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE). However, TESE cannot be opted for men with non-obstructive azoospermia because it is unable to sample rare areas that are producing sperm. It is carried out without magnification but in microTESE, microsurgical technique is resorted to identify seminiferous tubules which might contain sperm. It is to be noted that, TESE and MicroTESE are equally successful depending upon the underlying condition of the patient.
