Azoospermia in a Male with Klippel–Feil Anomaly
نویسندگان
چکیده
Müllerian-duct aplasia, renal agenesis, and cervical somite dysplasia (MURCS) is a rare genetic disorder. Previously thought to be exclusive in females, there have now been a small number of case reports describing a male analogue. We describe a patient with obstructive azoospermia and Klippel-Feil anomaly.

The triad of the Klippel-Feil anomaly, Duane's retraction syndrome, and deaf-mutism was described by Wildervanck (1960) as the cervico-oculoacusticus syndrome. The Klippel-Feil anomaly essentially comprises a variety of bony deformities of the cervical spine, usually involving fusion, which appear clinically as a short neck with a limited range of movements of the head and neck and a low poster...
متن کاملA Case of Anomalous Origin and Course of Vertebral Artery in a Patient with Klippel Feil Syndrome
Patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) have an increased incidence of vascular anomalies as well as vertebral artery (VA) anomalies. In this article, we presented imaging findings of a 15-year-old female patient with KFS with a rare association of extraforaminal cranially ascending right VA that originated from the ipsilateral carotid bulb. Trifurcation of the carotid bulb with VA is a very ...
