We conducted a case-controlled single-center cohort study to evaluate the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcome in severe male infertility with different methods of sperm obtention. The data was compiled from a tertiary university hospital. The micro-TESE procedures were performed from 2008 to 2023, with a sperm recovery rate (SRR) of 45 %. The ICSI treatments were carried out between 2011 and 2023. The aim of the study was to compare the ICSI outcome using sperm obtained by microdissection testicular extraction (micro-TESE), testicular sperm aspiration (TESA), and ejaculated sperm with sperm concentration less than 15 million per milliliter. We included a total of 462 ICSI cycles, of which 340 ICSIs with ejaculated sperm of men with oligozoospermia, with or without asthenozoospermia or teratozoospermia (OAT group), 51 ICSIs with TESA sperm of men with obstructive azoospermia (OA, TESA group), and 71 ICSIs with micro-TESE sperm of men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA, micro-TESE group). The patient characteristics, fertilization rate, pregnancy rate, and pregnancy outcome data were similar between the groups. The fertilization rates were 66.0 % in the OAT group, 68.3 % in the TESA group and 62.8 % in the micro-TESE group and live birth rate per embryo transfer were 23.7 %, 28.9 %, and 25.0 %, respectively, without statistical difference. The obstetrical outcome was similar in all the groups. The overall clinical results in all ICSI cycles performed for treating severe male factor infertility were similar, independent of the method of collection of spermatozoa. The results also confirm the efficacy of micro-TESE in the treatment of severe male factor infertility.

D011247	Pregnancy	The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH.	Gestation,Pregnancies
D005260	Female		Females
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D012189	Retrospective Studies	Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.

D012661	Semen	The thick, yellowish-white, viscid fluid secretion of male reproductive organs discharged upon ejaculation. In addition to reproductive organ secretions, it contains SPERMATOZOA and their nutrient plasma.	Seminal Plasma,Plasma, Seminal
D013094	Spermatozoa	Mature male germ cells derived from SPERMATIDS. As spermatids move toward the lumen of the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES, they undergo extensive structural changes including the loss of cytoplasm, condensation of CHROMATIN into the SPERM HEAD, formation of the ACROSOME cap, the SPERM MIDPIECE and the SPERM TAIL that provides motility.

D013737	Testis	The male gonad containing two functional parts: the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES for the production and transport of male germ cells (SPERMATOGENESIS) and the interstitial compartment containing LEYDIG CELLS that produce ANDROGENS.	Testicles,Testes,Testicle
D015331	Cohort Studies	Studies in which subsets of a defined population are identified. These groups may or may not be exposed to factors hypothesized to influence the probability of the occurrence of a particular disease or other outcome. Cohorts are defined populations which, as a whole, are followed in an attempt to determine distinguishing subgroup characteristics.
