OBJECTIVE: To report a patient with azoospermia who achieved an induction of spermatogenesis after undergoing orchiopexy of long-standing bilateral traumatic dislocated testes. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: Clinical. PATIENT(S): A 33-year-old man. INTERVENTION(S): Imaging studies, orchiopexy, testicular biopsy, and a review of similar cases. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Recovery of spermatogenesis after orchiopexy. RESULT(S): A patient with azoospermia with bilateral traumatic dislocated testes due to a motorcycle accident 15 years previously. A bilateral testicular dislocation in the superficial inguinal pouch was diagnosed by palpation, imaging studies, and exploration. A recovery of spermatogenesis was obtained after performing orchiopexy of bilateral dislocated testes. CONCLUSION(S): The recovery of spermatogenesis in patients with azoospermia with a bilateral testicular dislocation therefore may be successfully obtained after appropriately performing orchiopexy.
