Chromosomal and molecular abnormalities in a group of Brazilian infertile men with severe oligozoospermia or non-obstructive azoospermia attending an infertility service.
PURPOSE To determine the frequency of genetic alterations in a population of Brazilian infertile men with severe oligozoospermia or non-obstructive azoospermia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective study of a group of 143 infertile men with severe oligozoospermia or non-obstructive azoospermia from the Andrology Outpatient Clinic of the Human Reproduction Service at the ABC School of Medicine....
متن کاملChromosomal studies in infertile men with oligozoospermia & non-obstructive azoospermia.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Chromosomal anomalies have been postulated to be as one of the principal genetic factors in male infertility. Cytogenetic evaluation of men with severely compromised semen parameters reveals an increased incidence of chromosomal aberrations when compared with the normal population. The objective of this study was to determine the chromosomal constitution and sperm charact...
متن کاملY Chromosome Microdeletions in Infertile Men with Non-obstructive Azoospermia and Severe Oligozoospermia
BACKGROUND The purpose of the study was to investigate the frequencies and types of Y chromosome microdeletions in infertile men and to analyze the relationship between the levels of reproductive hormones and Y microdeletions. METHODS A total of 1,226 infertile men were screened for Y chromosome microdeletions using multiplex PCR assay. Karyotype analysis was performed on peripheral blood lym...
متن کاملFrequency of Y chromosome microdeletions and chromosomal abnormalities in infertile Thai men with oligozoospermia and azoospermia.
AIM To investigate the possible causes of oligozoospermia and azoospermia in infertile Thai men, and to find the frequencies of Y chromosome microdeletions and cytogenetic abnormalities in this group. METHODS From June 2003 to November 2005, 50 azoospermic and 80 oligozoospermic men were enrolled in the study. A detailed history was taken for each man, followed by general and genital examinat...
متن کاملCystic fibrosis mutation screening in CBAVD patients and men with obstructive azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia.
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) found in otherwise healthy infertile males, is associated with a high incidence of mutated cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) alleles, and is considered a genital form of cystic fibrosis (CF). The CF gene may also be involved in the aetiology of male infertility in cases other than CBAVD. The present study was unde...
