- Brief Summary
This study aims to investigate the outcome of ICSI after using LAISS for selection of viable immotile testicular sperm in azoospermic infertile men.
Patients will be randomly assigned to 2 groups. In (LAISS) group, viable immotile testicular sperms will be selected before ICSI using laser assisted immotile sperm selection (study group). In (HOST) group, viable immotile testicular sperms will be selected before ICSI using hypo-osmotic swelling test (control group).
