چکیده

An infertile couple was referred for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) because of primary infertility and oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) in the male. It was observed that although the sperm cells presented with an unusual head size and multiple tails they were able to fertilize the oocytes after ICSI. Subsequent molecular cytogenetic analysis demonstrated de-novo chromosome abnormalities in virtually all sperm cells with 40% diploidy and 24% triploidy in addition to aneuploidy for the sex chromosomes.

Normospermic versus teratospermic domestic cat sperm chromatin integrity evaluated by flow cytometry and intracytoplasmic sperm injection.

Teratospermia (>60% of morphologically abnormal spermatozoa) is well documented in felids. Even morphologically normal spermatozoa from teratospermic ejaculates have reduced ability to undergo tyrosine phosphorylation, acrosome react, and bind and penetrate oocytes compared with normospermic (<40% abnormal spermatozoa) counterparts. However, it is unknown whether fertilization deficiencies orig...

Results of cytogenetic analysis in men with severe subfertility prior to intracytoplasmic sperm injection.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is increasingly becoming the treatment of choice for severe male subfertility. Cytogenetic evaluation of men with andrological subfertility reveals an increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities when compared with the normal population. We performed chromosomal analysis on the male partners of 32 couples referred for andrological subfertility. In two...

Testicular versus epididymal spermatozoa in intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment cycles.

BACKGROUND Normal fertilization and ongoing pregnancy can be achieved using intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), even with severely immature spermatozoa. However, the published literature documents conflicting results as to the outcome of ICSI. METHODS Surgical extraction of spermatozoa in 111 ICSI treatment cycles performed over five years at the Assisted Conception Unit (ACU), Universit...

Special applications of intracytoplasmic sperm injection: the influence of sperm count, motility, morphology, source and sperm antibody on the outcome of ICSI.

The relationship between the three basic parameters of ejaculated spermatozoa, i.e. concentration, motility and morphology, and the results of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) were investigated in 838 microinjection cycles. A further 123 ICSI treatment cycles in which testicular spermatozoa were used for microinjection were also evaluated. The influence of anti-sperm antibodies (ASA) on ...

Influence of antisperm antibodies in the semen on intracytoplasmic sperm injection outcome.

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of autoantibodies against spermatozoa present in the semen on the outcome of in vitro fertilization with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of clinical and laboratorial data from a six year-period ICSI cycles. Screening for the presence of ASA in the semen, by using t...
