摘要

T he treatment of men with infertility from azoospermia is challenging.As some men with severe oligozoospermia improve sperm output during treatment with isotretinoin,we treated nine men with azoospermia with isotretinoin to determine if azoospermic men would also respond to isotretinoin treatment.One of these men who had a previous negative testicular sperm extraction(TESE)was found to have an area of sperm production on a postisotretinoin testicular extraction.
