Objective: This study investigated the number of live births in men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) using a combination micro-testicular sperm extraction and intracytoplasmic sperm injection. METHODS: A total of 434 patients who underwent micro-testicular sperm extraction because of NOA were included in the study. Data such as date of birth, duration of infertility (in years), number of mature oocytes obtained from the spouse, number of embryos transferred, day of transfer, medical histories of the spouses, physical examination findings, and comorbidities were recorded. Results: Ultimately, 19 live births were achieved through successful implantation. Conclusion: The combination of micro-testicular sperm extraction and intracytoplasmic sperm injection in NOA cases continues to be the most ideal and current treatment method for couples who want to have children.
