Does the presence of nuclear vacuoles in human sperm selected for ICSI affect pregnancy outcome?
BACKGROUND To verify whether or not microinjection of sperm with a normal nuclear shape but large vacuoles affects IVF-ICSI pregnancy outcome. METHODS A comparative study testing IVF outcome parameters of IVF-ICSI, based on morphological selection of spermatozoa with normal nuclei against those based on microinjection of sperm with a normal nuclear shape but large vacuoles. An experimental gr...
متن کاملDoes human sperm nuclear DNA integrity affect embryo quality?
Abnormalities in the male genome are a clear potential reason for post fertilization failure. Male infertility may arise due to high levels of loosely packaged chromatin and damaged DNA. The achievement of a correct chromatin packaging level is essential for successful fertilization. The chromatin contained in the nuclei of mammalian spermatozoa is an extremely compact and stable structure. The...
متن کاملSperm Vacuoles and Reproductive Outcome
It is estimated that the male factor contributes to half of the infertility in couples attending for assisted reproductive techniques (ART). Therefore the semen analysis remains the starting point to evaluate main causes of infertility and in case of oligospermic semen the assessment of sperm morphology may help to choose the best spermatozoon to use for the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IC...
متن کاملlarge nuclear vacuoles in spermatozoa negatively affect pregnancy rate in ivf cycles
background: recently, motile sperm organelle morphology examination (msome) criteria as a new real time tool for evaluation of spermatozoa in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) cycles has been considered. objective: the aim was to investigate the predictive value of msome in in vitro fertilization (ivf) in comparison to icsi cycles and evaluation of the association between msome parameters...
متن کاملSignificance of large nuclear vacuoles in human spermatozoa: implications for ICSI.
The aim of this study was to determine the extent of DNA fragmentation and the presence of denatured single-stranded or normal double-stranded DNA in spermatozoa with large nuclear vacuoles (LNV) selected by high magnification. Fresh semen samples from 30 patients were prepared by discontinuous isolate concentration gradient. Spermatozoa with normal nucleus (NN) and LNV were selected at x8400 m...
