What would you offer?
• Attempt semen cryopreservation?
• Zero sperm seen
• Testicular tissue cryopreservation?

Pathology:
• Testis, right: Immature seminiferous tubules, showing Sertoli cells only pattern. No active spermatogenesis.
• Testis, left, biopsy: Immature seminiferous tubules, showing Sertoli cells only pattern. No active spermatogenesis.

Now what?
• Testosterone supplementation
• Should his tissue be kept in storage, or is it a waste of money?

• Mother has done research, requests fertility preservation
• Patient initially not interested, but wants to hear options
• Scant data on spontaneous return of sperm production upon d/c’ing puberty blocker
• Per patient: would also be very difficult

• Going to OR next day for port placement
• Fertility preservation discussion:
• Can’t he just give a semen sample??
• Would you still preserve tissue if viable sperm are found on TESE?

Open testicular biopsy, TESE
• 10 vials for patient use and 5 vials for research.
• Per patient (and parent) request we also have 8 vials of TESE sperm frozen for patient use.
• The 10 vials are being frozen per IRB requirements and the 8 vials were frozen per our standard REI freezing protocol.
• Sperm were found, both non-motile (5-10 per HPF) and twitching (3 in 5 HPF’s).
