Semen analysis showed azoospermia and the serum follicle stimulating hormone value was high (36.9 mIU/ml). Microdissection testicular sperm extraction was performed, and motile sperm were successfully retrieved. The histological examination showed increased thickness of the basement membrane and, peritubular fibrosis in most seminiferous tubules, with few focal areas of normal spermatogenesis |
