Background. To compare preoperative and postoperative sperm parameters such as sperm count, motility, and morphology in patients with normal sperm concentration with teratozoospermia and asthenozoospermia. Materials and Methods. Hundred and six patients with varicocele associated with male infertility over a 5-year period were included into the study. Pre- and postvaricocelectomy seminal fluid ...

Infertile men with azoospermia and low testosterone levels because of Klinefelter's or Sertoli cell-only syndrome responded to a single injection of TRH by an increase in serum prolactin levels. The degree of this response was not as great as in fertile men with normospermia and normal testosterone levels, although initial prolactin levels had been similar in both groups. The results demonstrat...

Results: Compared with the other groups, oligospermic group had the highest proportion of specimens with abnormal liquefaction (26.0%) and leukocyte counts (32.0%). Both oligospermic and asthenospermic groups had comparable sperm motility, which was lower than that in normospermia (p < 0.05). The mean levels of γ-GT and Mg in oligospermia were significantly lower than that in all other groups. ...

Background: The aim of present study was to estimate the levels of some Trace element (Lead, Copper, Cobalt, Chromium, and Cademium) concentrations in Asthenospermia and Normospermia by atomic absorption method, in comparison with control (Fertile), Estimate concentration of (MDA) Malondialdehyde and Total protein concentration in semen specimens.Also relationships between mentioned components ...

Chromosomal abnormalities represent a significant genetic cause of male infertility because they impair spermatogenesis. The objective the current study was to determine prevalence and distribution chromosomal in Greek men with infertility. Four hundred eighty-eight infertile (27 azoospermic, 168 oligospermia -98 mild, 57 moderate, 13 severe- 293 normospermia) undergoing In &lt;em&gt;Vitro &lt;...

Abstract Study question Is there a relationship between the microbiota composition of semen samples used for assisted reproductive technologies (ART) and quality embryos? Summary answer The obligate anaerobes prevalence in was associated with reduced embryo patients astenozoospermia, but no difference found normozoospermic samples. What is known already success ART depends on number factors, in...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical and histopathological results of adult unilateral cryptorchidism patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data from adult unilateral cryptorchidism patients that underwent orchiectomy in our clinic between between January 2004 and March 2013 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were divided into three groups as intra-abdominal, inguinal canal and superficial ingui...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of low sperm count including oligospermia and azoospermia in male infertile population, and to assess the pattern and distribution of abnormal semen parameters in infertile men. METHODS The descriptive cross-sectional survey was carried out at the Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Sharif Medical City Hospital, Lahore, from June 2009 to June 2010. ...

We sought to discover whether spermatozoa concentration and the delay between ejaculation and test influence the results of seminal fluid fast detection tests. Two hundred and twenty-seven anonymous samples divided into four groups (normospermia, oligospermia, azoospermia, and controls) after a semen analysis were subjected to three fast detection semen tests: Diff-Quick fast coloration, Phosph...
