Proportion of cystic fibrosis gene mutations not detected by routine testing in men with obstructive azoospermia.

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Infertile men with obstructive azoospermia may have mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, many of which are rare in classic cystic fibrosis and not evaluated in most routine mutation screening. OBJECTIVE: To assess how often CFTR mutations or sequence alterations undetected by routine screening are detected with more extensive screening in obstructive...
