TREATMENT OF NON-OBSTRUCTIVE AZOOSPERMIA WITH MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS. CLINICAL CASE.
Infertility in marital marriage is the most important medical and social problem, drawing the attention of many researchers to the problem of reproductive health of the population. The frequency of increasing infertility causes a decrease in the birth rate and a decrease in the population. According to statistics, about 20% of cases are associated with the male factor of infertility, 50% with the female factor.
The male factor predominates in 50% of infertility cases. The article presents the results of our observation of a patient with non-obstructive azoospermia who received an intratesticular injection of mesenchymal stem cells.
The results of our study, as well as the results of this review, should provide scientists, endrologists, reproductologists and healthcare managers with confidence that, according to the available scientific data, an innovative method of cell therapy is safe for clinical use.
From a practical point of view, the results of this work can serve as the basis for the application of a new cellular approach for the treatment of this pathology using regenerative medicine.
