In response to Dr. Meacham's question regarding sperm retrieval after
chemotherapy, I would recommend the following references

Chan, P.T.K., Palermo, G.D., Veeck, L.L., Rosenwaks, Z., Schlegel, P.N.
Testicular sperm extraction combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection
in the treatment of men with persistent azoospermia postchemotherapy. Cancer
92: 1632-1637, 2001.

Damani, M.N., Masters, V., Meng, M.V., Burgess, C. Turek, P., Oates, R.D.
Postchemotherapy ejaculatory azoospermia: fatherhood with sperm from testis
tissue with intracytoplasmic sperm injection. J Clin Oncol 20: 930-936,
2002.

Hope this helps.
